He lived and worked near the waterfront in Provincetown on Cape Cod for 30 years before moving to Vermont in 2005. An inveterate scavenger, Bowen has always been interested in using materials that have a history\u2014wood that was once part of ships, houses, salt works, barrels, cable drums, or crates. He has also worked with flags, tar, canvas, rope, and other marine detritus. Bowen creates his sculptures through stacking, piling, and simple carpentry. The sculptures in the exhibit &#8220;Rust Work&#8221; (on view through February 6, 2017) were made from wood Bowen collected on Cape Cod and at the Wilder Dam on the Connecticut River. Bowen lives in Newfane.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Margaret Lampe Kannenstine: &#8220;From Luminous Shade&#8221; &#8211; Sunday, November 13, 2PM<\/strong><br \/>\nMargaret Lampe Kannenstine is a state, regional, and national leader of the creative community. In 2008, she received the Distinguished Public Service Award from the National Assembly of State Art Agencies. Her paintings in the exhibit &#8220;From Luminous Shade&#8221; (on view through January 8, 2017) comprise a moving testament to the restorative power of art. Kannenstine created them in response to the untimely death of her son, David, in 2009. Presented alongside poems by Giuseppe Ungaretti (as translated by Ann McGarrell), the paintings depict a journey from numbing despair, through the dark months, and finally into sunlight. They bravely and delicately explore the depths of love and loss. Kannestine lives in Woodstock.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Brattleboro Museum and Art Center<\/strong><br \/>\n10 Vernon Street<br \/>\nBrattleboro 05301<br \/>\n(802) 257-0124<\/p>\n<p>Hours:<br \/>\nDaily (except Tuesday), 11AM-5PM<br \/>\nOpen until 8:30PM for the First Friday Gallery Walk<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.ca\/maps\/place\/Brattleboro+Museum+%26+Art+Center\/@42.850815,-72.556556,15z\/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x4c16905e9e863d99?sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwi5mOGqm9rNAhVlpIMKHedTAgIQ_BIIejAN\" target=\"_blank\">MAP<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brattleboromuseum.org\">WEBSITE<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/brattmuseum\">FACEBOOK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image:<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Sapper<\/em><br \/>\nby Paul Bowen<br \/>\n41&#8243;x61&#8243;x10&#8243;<br \/>\nrusted wood and paing<br \/>\nCourtesy of the artist and Brattleboro Museum and Art Center<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fall Artist Talks at Brattleboro Museum and Art Center Admission to both talks is free.
