Conversations with the BIGGER Curator & Artists

Please join us for a free, public reception and talk at the Jamestown Arts Center in Jamestown, RI on Wednesday, August 15 from 6-8pm to celebrate the work of the artists in BIGGER: Glorious Objects and to learn more about the show’s concept from the curator, Jesse Smith. Artists and curator will be in attendance to answer questions and engage in a dialogue with the audience.

In the words of the curator:
“The resulting miracle of an artist’s creative commitment often appears through beautiful, skillfully constructed forms. Today, such objects bear close scrutiny, signaling authenticity and value amidst a noisy culture of received ideas and fashionable clutter. Even though recurring waves of conceptual trends eventually become obsolete. What doesn’t change from year to year, decade to decade, millennium to millennium is beauty found in objects created by skillful hand, eye, and commitment.”

BIGGER: Glorious Objects runs through Aug. 22. Gallery hours are Wednesday through Sunday, 10am-2pm.
