Wax East - Wax West: Two Artist Organizations Join Forces for National Collaborative Show
The tandem exhibitions are the first of their kind featuring collaborative work in encaustic media created by member artists paired from each organization. Each artist in the 36 pairings created one half of a two-panel painting or "diptych" then sent the work to the partner artist to answer in visual dialogue and complete the piece. Works completed by IEA artists will debut at the Brian Marki Fine Art in Oregon, and works completed by NEW artists will be introduced at Whitney Art Works in Maine.

Keeping It Simple: Art from a Plastic Camera - works by Lora Brueck and Nancy Engberg (Fri, Aug 29)
Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts, Gallery, 2 Southbridge St., Worcester, MA
Photographs by Lora Brueck and Nancy Engberg from Holga cameras - gallery viewing by appointment - call 508-755-5142 Since becoming involved with photography twenty-five years ago, Lora Brueck and Nancy Engberg have been attracted to alternative methods. When asked about their work, Brueck states, "Plastic cameras - Holgas, Dianas, and other 'toys' - have allowed us to express a quirky vision in a way that complicated high-tech equipment can't. Fuzzy images, light leaks, and double exposures are the norm with these simple cameras. Keeping it Simple: Art from a Plastic Camera expresses a sense of fun in the artistic process and that 'mistakes' often become an important part of the effect." Sponsored by: ARTSworcester. Cost: free Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, through Sep 5.
