CURRENT SHOW
"Nourish"
Main Street Gallery is celebrating 7 years of bringing the best in contemporary art to
Cambridge, and supporting and encouraging its member artists with its new show, “Nourish."
Featured artist-member Kathy Flament, well known for her expressive style of painting, will be showing works that capture the spirit of nourishment in its many forms. Joyful, colorful prints of water and foods such as corn, tomatoes, oysters, crabs and rockfish, that nourish our Eastern shore bodies, hang beside evocative fiber works that nourish the artistic soul.
The twelve other artist-members will be showing their artistic interpretations of the notion of “nourish” as well. “We all have sources of nourishment,” states the artist who lives and works in Rehoboth Beach Delaware. “As people, culture is embodied in our cuisines. Think of ancient civilizations like the Romans and their oils and wine, India and its spices. I think of nourish too, when I seek to calm unsettling feelings. I take in the views of the ocean and skies. I trace the flights of birds above me.”
There will be lots of nourishing, celebratory foods and a wine tasting with wines from Hair’O The Dog at a second Saturday anniversary party. Music will be provided by acclaimed pianist/singer and occasional raconteur, Maris Wicker with an eclectic mix from Billie Holiday to Stephen Sondheim to Antonio Carlos Jobim and more. Before moving to Cambridge, Ms. Wicker was active in the DC area as an oratorio, art song interpreter and cabaret performer.
This all takes place on September 8 from 5-8 pm at the gallery on 518 Poplar St., directly
across from Jimmie and Sooks. Another reception for “Nourish” will be on second Saturday,
October 13. Both receptions are free and open to the public.
