“Grace Mellow: Not for Show”
\nMarch 2-April 9, 2017<\/h2>\n

Opening reception: Friday, March 10, 5-8PM<\/p>\n

“Grace Mellow: Not For Show” features a selection of Mellow\u2019s more experimental figurative drawings.<\/p>\n

The work was created in New York City. Mellow uses gouache and pastel, plays with line weight and blocks of color to capture what feel like intimate and passing moments. \u201cThese drawings were never intended to be shown,\u201d says Mellow. She describes this body of work as \u201cvisual amusements, inspired by the burlesque and cabaret performers who sat for them–quirky individuals with a rare joie de vivre<\/em> and a talent for remaining motionless for 20 minutes at a time.\u201d At a time of year when Vermonters may have a bit of cabin fever, this show provides a taste of the funk and sass of New York City.<\/p>\n

Grace Mellow was born in Rutland. She earned a Diploma from the Boston Museum School and a BFA from Tufts University, with additional studies at The Art Students League of New York and Cooper Union. Most recently, she completed a residency at the Vermont Studio Center. She currently divides her time between Poultney and New York City.<\/p>\n
