LEWISTION — The Atrium Art Gallery at the University of Southern Maine’s Lewiston-Auburn College presents the work of 93 artists from Androscoggin, Franklin and Oxford counties in the biennial exhibition “Area Artists 2015” continuing through April 4.
Included are paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, and works in clay, wood, fiber, metal, and mixed media. The exhibition features work in a variety of styles from representational to abstract, with landscapes, figure studies and portraits, still lifes, and sculptural work.
Longtime sponsor for the exhibition series, Spiller’s president, Ray Martel, remarks that his company is proud to support the exhibition and the advancement of the arts and artists in the tri-county area. The exhibition series began in 1994 and over the years has highlighted hundreds of artists in Androscoggin, Franklin, and Oxford counties.
The juried exhibition was open to all artists, age 18 and over, who could submit one or two pieces in any media. Juror for the exhibition was Robyn Holman, curator for the Atrium Art Gallery, with over 35 years of developing and organizing art exhibits, jurying and consulting.
