PORTLAND   

The ever popular Kevin Beers has two series of works.  In Monhegan Landscapes, Beers returns to his beloved Monhegan Island to create a light-filled group of land- and seascapes that mine a new trove of subject matter from this tiny, rugged island off the coast of Maine.

In the second group, Beers turns his attention back to his extraordinary truck paintings. These bold, brushy paintings prompted one reviewer to write: "An old Reo or Chevy, hunched down against the oncoming night is an elegiac figure. It tells of journeys gone by with solemnity and hushed dignity."

And for a special treat, Kevin will have an artist talk on Thursday, March 8 at 5:30 pm.  Please join us! 

"Kevin Beers: Landscapes and Trucks" opens Friday, February 3 and runs through March 31, at our Portland gallery, 545 Congress Street. Gallery hours are Wednesday through Friday, 11-6, and Saturday, 11-5. For further information, call the gallery at 207-699-5599.
