PRESS RELEASE:
BOSTON, MA – January 2013 – Kingston Gallery is pleased to present Stacey Alickman & Lynda Schlosberg, in the artists’ first exhibition with the gallery, in its Center Gallery space from January 30 through February 24. A reception for the public will be held in the gallery on Friday, February 1 from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.
Stacey Alickman’s current project is called “Pulling The Legs Off Bugs Was a Cruel, Harmless Waste of Time.” These paintings reflect her process of exploration and how this phrase has developed visually as well as conceptually. What have emerged are abstract pieces that are textured and rhythmic, densely worked and sculpted. She also became interested in the possibilities of recycling oil paintings by peeling the paint off of its canvas and using the resulting chips for other projects. These paint-laden chips lend themselves to drawing as well as stacking and assemblage.
Stacey Alickman has been painting and drawing for over twenty years. She graduated from Brandeis University, studied graphic design at Massachusetts College of Art and Design, and painting at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Her “Pulling The Legs Off Bugs Project” was successfully funded through USA Projects, Los Angeles, CA in 2012. Works on paper can also be seen at The Drawing Center, Viewing Program in New York and Carroll and Sons, Drawing Project in Boston. She works in Somerville, MA.
Lynda Schlosberg creates intricately detailed paintings that combine abstract expressive techniques overlaid by layers of intertwining pattern and color, characterizing a relationship between form and formlessness. Objects emerge and dissipate; layers of data collapse into one another, constructing collaborative spaces of interlacing dimensions. In her paintings line and geometry are woven together constructed of thousands of tiny brushstrokes using opaque, saturated colors. As individual marks assert themselves they are instantaneously absorbed back into the collective, depicting a never-ending cycle, where energy vibrates into form and form breaks down into indiscernible particles of energy; the sum of all its parts creates an ineffable whole.
Lynda Schlosberg’s paintings have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions regionally, including solo exhibitions at Bentley University and the New Hampshire Institute of Art. Her work has been published in ArtBeat and Studio Visit magazines and reviewed in the Boston Globe. She has lectured on Color in Digital Technology, has taught at the New Hampshire Institute of Art and recently was a guest artist at Southern Maine Community College. She received her BFA from Ohio University College of Art, and her MFA from the Art Institute of Boston/Lesley University. She currently has a studio in Beverly, Massachusetts.
Kingston Gallery is an artist-run alternative space founded in 1982. The gallery is committed to showing work by emerging and established artists, hosting one-person and group exhibitions by gallery members as well as offering opportunities for non-members via its Center Gallery. The gallery is located in Boston’s historic South End between Harrison Avenue and Albany Street in the vibrant SoWa gallery district.

About the Show
Big HUGE small works is a group exhibition showcasing works by Kingston Gallery Members and Kingston Associates. The show features smaller art works in a wide variety of media, all highlighting some aspect of the important concept of scale. Each of the artists applies a unique approach to the questions: “How do we define the relative ideas of bigness and smallness?” and “What scale of measurement is appropriate to use when measuring a visual idea?” The works in the show offer a wide spectrum of interpretive variations on this theme, all of which are guaranteed to engage viewers in thoughtful contemplation and visual delight.

AIB MFA Alumni Biennial Exhibition “Objectified”
I am pleased to announce my painting Diffraction is in this alumni show.
Below is a video about the exhibition produced by the curatorial committee.
And here is a link to the exhibition catalog on blurb.com
ABOUT THE SHOW
Lesley University’s Art Institute of Boston invites you to experience the unique interpretations of more than 120 talented AIB MFA Alumni from across the United States and beyond as they come together to create one of the largest exhibitions in New England this year. The exhibit, entitled “Objectified,” opens Friday, January 4th at Washburn Hall, 10 Phillips Place, Cambridge, with an opening reception from 6 to 9 p.m. The exhibition will run through January 12th.
The theme for this year’s Biennial—“Objectified”—challenges the AIB artists to explore the dynamic range of power inherent in objectifying a subject or conversely, by focusing intently and decisively on a single object. More than 300 people visited the first MFA Alumni exhibition opening, and the University is expecting this event to be just as spectacularly attended.
The AIB MFA Alumni have orchestrated this group exhibition in cooperation with Lesley University as a celebration of the diversity and strength of the creative bonds forged in AIB’s intensive low-residency MFA program. This exhibition is also dedicated toward fostering deeper ties between AIB and the main Lesley University campus as AIB prepares to transition to its new location in Porter Square, Cambridge, MA.

Fresh Visions: Painting Now
Entanglement, acrylic on panel, 16 x 16 inches
I am pleased to announce that my two paintings, Entanglement and Diffraction have been accepted into the show “Fresh Visions: Painting Now,” at the Hopkinton Art Center, juried by Zola Solamente from Arden Gallery, Boston.
ABOUT THE SHOW
In the wake of new media such as installation, video and digital art, painting continues to thrive. Artists have extended the practice of painting considerably, exploring various styles, materials and methods. These include photo-realism, landscape, still-life, portraiture, abstract, neo-expressionism and more. We look forward to showcasing the broad range of work that comprises contemporary painting in our Fall show, Fresh Visions: Painting Now.

“Spontaneous Order” 2-Person Exhibition with Mary O’Malley at Porter Mill Gallery
The Gallery at Porter Mill is pleased to present “Spontaneous Order,” a two-person exhibition featuring the paintings of local artists Lynda Schlosberg and Mary O’Malley. Both Schlosberg and O’Malley maintain working studios at Porter Mill. Their work is linked both visually and conceptually and is bound by an exploration of color, mark making, labor-intensive processes, and a play with scale. On their own, these works are powerful and visceral, when paired together they create a dynamic visual and transcendent experience. Porter Mill artist and fashion designer Ashley Conchieri will have her designs on display in Porter Mill’s alternative Three Pane Display Space for the month of September as well.
