Last week to experience 'lilith's room ...' in MA ...

 

this is the last week to visit 'lilith's room ...'  & the last time to meet and greet some of these characters residing on the gallery walls. So I am planning to be at the gallery Wednesday and Saturday, 12-3pm.

'lilith room ...' closes this Saturday, October 23.   Even though 'lilith's room ...' will be moving to Manhattanville College,  this is the last opportunity to meet these wily beings that grace the walls of the Anderson Art Center and Gallery  as once my exhibit closes the gallery walls will be repainted. I will miss these walls and these creatures , but I like this ephemeral element of my work - here now and then gone. http://bsuarts.com/Fitzgerald.htm I plan to be at the gallery 2 times this week to answer any questions and tell you about the exhibit if you are interested ... Wednesday, Oct 20th, from 12-3pm Saturday, Oct 23rd, from 12-3pm. Saturday is the last day that you can experience 'lilith's room ...' as the gallery isn't open on Sundays Saturday the gallery will be open from 10am -3pm as it is Bridgewater's Homecoming weekend *BSU has an indoor mask policy in place. Please wear a mask at all times while indoors.* Feel free to email me if you have any questions  'lilith ...' & I hope to see you this week. Wallace L.

'lilith ...' is receiving guests this saturday ...

Come meet the artist and experience 'lilith's room ...'

'lilith's room ...' is on exhibit through October 25th 

at the Anderson Gallery, Bridgewater State University, Bridgewater, MA.

This exhibit is the first time Fitzgerald has shown her 'dress of plastic ...' and 

her mixed media painting, 'why is a raven ...' as well as her site specific installation, 'lilith's room ...' 

Gallery hours are M-F 9-4, and the gallery will be open 10-3 pm on Saturday, October 23rd, during Bridgewater's homecoming weekend, 

as well as this Saturday, October 2nd.  

This Saturday you can meet the artist and experience 'lilith's room ...' 

as Fitzgerald will be gallery sitting from 12-3 pm. 

'lilith's room ...' is a space that dispels inhibitions and external limiting beliefs, while creating an safe environment in which to excavate and experience one's authentic self and rediscover one's imagination and creativity.

so this is happening ...

Earlier this year I was invited to have a solo exhibition at the Anderson Gallery at Bridgewater State University.  When touring the gallery space I was told that I could paint on the walls which made my heart jump for joy.  

One of my favorite exhibits had been my installation 'this comes from within ...' which was staged at Michael Dowling's Medicine Wheel, back in 2009.  For this piece I covered the walls of the gallery with what I now refer to as my 'intuitive line painting'. So when I was presented with the option of painting on the gallery's walls I jump at it.

Instead of covering the entire gallery I decided to concentrate on one side of the gallery, creating a space centered around my sculpture, 'lilith in blue ...' For this installation I have covered a desk, a medicine cabinet, a rocking horse and a hanging panel of fabric, along with numerous knick-knacks, with my 'intuitive line painting' in blue and white, to create 'lilith's room ...'  

I am very excited about this installation.  I have been painting the components in my studio for the past few months and wish to share a few of the 'in process' photos and videos here.

a quick look at how I create the particular line quality for my 'intuitive line painting'

a colleague suggested that my process creates a look similar to batik.

This is quite an undertaking so watch this space as there is more to come ...

thank you and peace
