Joanne Chittick: Sitting Pretty
2022-10-06 00:00 - 2022-11-05 23:59 (America/New_York) | Copley Society for Art, 158 Newbury Street, Boston, 02116, United States
JoAnne Chittick: Sitting Pretty
Join us for an opening reception on October 6th from 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM at the Copley Society of Art
The Copley Society of Art is proud to present Sitting Pretty, a solo exhibition featuring the work of Co|So Artist Member JoAnne Chittick. The exhibition explores the theme of chairs and the story each one tells through their distinct character, presence, and history. The exhibition will be on view in the Lower Gallery Alcove from October 6th – November 5th, 2022 at the Copley Society of Art, located at 158 Newbury Street, Boston, MA.
Sitting Pretty is comprised of over 40 paintings thematically capturing these chairs’ stories through oil on handmade paper. JoAnne Chittick remarks that the series was inspired by one little yellow antique Swedish chair. “Its design, color, and rustic appeal was irresistible, asking to be drawn and painted. As I looked around my house, I realized that so many other chairs – soft, welcoming gingham armchair; sturdy rocker on my studio porch; elegant living room wing chair; little wooden rockers from the childhoods of my own children, my mother, an elderly friend — are each individuals with a special look, character, and presence.” – JoAnne Chittick

TAG: Contemporary Painters

April 2 – August 27, 2023
Reception: May 21, 2023, 1:00 – 4:00 pm
For this exhibition, we began by asking artist Carol O’Malia to be in the show. She then asked another painter to be in the show. That painter then chose another painter, etc. Hence the name “Tag.” The artists picked friends, studio mates, former classmates, and other artists whose work they admired. Like a game of tag there were not many rules, other than being based in New England, and even that rule was bent.
The result is an organically grown exhibition with a wide-ranging view. Artists in the exhibition include Angela Godoy, Kevin Kearns, Chil Mott, Richard Neal, Carol O’Malia, Tula Telfair, Peter Waite, and Gina Volpe.
Shown: Chil Mott, Untitled #17, from the Sill Life series, 2018, oil on board

Soft Pastels by
Donn Rossetti-Bailey
Artist Statement
The wonder of nature and the seasons, the weather, the ocean, and the transitions of our beautiful landscape have always been an inspiration for my artwork. I love the vistas and tucked away places I discover along roads less traveled. I am especially moved by those places where air, water and earth meet and those moments when nature blesses us with visual and spiritual images that take our breath away…the rising of the sun, snow flakes falling from the heavens, the crashing of waves during a storm or their soft lapping of the shoreline on a calm summer morning. They remind us of the power and beauty of nature and the importance of appreciating the world around us every day. May you find joy in both the permanence and transience of Mother Nature.
– Donna Rossetti-Bailey
