The Springs Historical Society continues its series SMALL WORKS AT THE LIBRARY. For this third of the small works show, The Springs Historical Society welcomes guest curator, Springs artist Barbara Thomas.
The show features small paintings, drawings, photography, sculpture, relief work, and video by various Springs artists, from notable resident artists Ross Bleckner and Cindy Sherman to two young artists currently students at East Hampton High School. Proceeds from sales benefit the upkeep of the Springs Community Library.
This show is titled STORIES, and the theme is inspired by the library setting. The artists explore their work in terms of its ‘story’—the story of its meaning, the story of its making, or a story it invokes. Artists will include a short piece of writing. The work in STORIES hopes to inspire the importance of creative freedom that libraries encourage and protect.
The show will be open during library hours until Monday, July 8. Works are for sale. 25% of sales proceeds will go to The Springs Library.
