Please reserve ahead.About Anne – An artist and writer, Anne Sherwood Pundyk brings together the traditions of abstract art, textiles and storytelling. Activated by color, her unstretched paintings are constructed from stained, cropped and sewn sections of drop cloth canvas. Elements of her studio work link directly to her photographs, artist’s books, writing and performance pieces. Based in New York, Pundyk has engaged in her art making, exhibiting and art writing over the last 35 years. She relocated her studio to the North Fork ten years ago. Curator Helen A. Harrison observed, “…[Pundyk’s] work suggests that understanding requires another interpretive tool, or perhaps a personal surrender to a deeper, less accessible, level of cognition.” The move has been the catalyst for a fundamental re-centering of her art around adapting everyday forms with an eye toward questioning convention. <a href="http://annesherwoodpundyk.com" title="http://annesherwoodpundyk.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">annesherwoodpundyk.com</a> @anne.sherwood.pundykAbout Rainer - Rainer Gross is an internationally renowned German American artist.
