Listening/Vermont: Paintings by Bunny Harvey, opening September 2

Frank Gave Me a Blue Mountain, 2000, oil on canvas, 44" x 44"
Join us on Friday, September 2, from 5 to 7 p.m. for the opening of Listening/Vermont, a selection of large- and small-scale paintings by artist Bunny Harvey. A Prix de Rome winner and a professor at Wellesley College, Bunny paints in her Vermont studio, where, she says, “everything around me animates my awareness; shifting winds, the songs of insects and birds, the scent of hay and manure, even the interruption of a distant chainsaw, all find their way onto the canvas. Watching and waiting for dragonflies helped me focus on sounds of the pond as they merged with my awareness of the huge variety of shapes and lights at water’s edge. The feel of my feet in the water, the aromas of changing layers of air, the sounds of the grasses—all these textures make the wait into a reverie.Listening/Vermont will be on view through October 12. To see more of Bunny's work online, go to her website (click here).

  1. Hi Patrick,

    Jack Rowell suggested that I get in touch with you about a show. Seeing that Bunny Harvey had a show there and Seven Days reviewed it, pretty much convinces me that he is right!

    I'd like to send you a couple of pdfs of recent work so you can see what I have been up to. My website hasn't been updated for a couple of years, but check it out if you would, please:

    Could you send me an e mail address to send pdfs to?

    Thanks,

    W. David Powell
