Gallery
The mission of the Harold Stevens Gallery, open to the community, is to showcase emerging and established artists within the broadest definition of the visual and performing arts. This includes a venue for performances, screenings, and educational events.
Now showing at The Harold Stevens Gallery: Pariah by Don Hartmann
Pariah as defined by the Cambridge English Dictionary: “a person who is avoided or not accepted by a social group, esp. because he or she is not liked, respected, or trusted; an outcast.”
Don Hartmann is a pop expressionist who investigates subversive narratives through his incongruous mise-en-scène paintings. Based in Worcester, Massachusetts, he has been exhibiting since 2001 both in Boston and Worcester galleries. His subject matter is derived from an array of people in his personal life, US pop culture and photographs appropriated from mass media interchangeably mixed with his own photos. (You can check out the artist’s home page here.)
Working in acrylics and mixed media, the paintings in this gallery are most recent and completed in 2024.
The Harold Stevens Gallery is proud to display 4×4 foot works from October 5 through November 23.
Closing reception: Saturday November 23rd, 5 to 7pm.
Gallery hours: Mondays 12 to 3 pm; Wednesdays 2 to 4 pm; Thursdays 1 to 5 pm; Fridays 11 to 2 pm; Saturdays 11 to 1 pm; or by appointment. Free to all!
