Deadline is May 15, 2012. We are looking forward to seeing what you all can do with a cell phone camera!

 

Getting in the spirit...

Remember that beautiful photograph you saw at StoneCrop this summer that you just haven't been able to get off your mind? Looking to buy an original gift for that special someone (yes, this includes yourself!) for the upcoming holiday season? If this applies to you (or just piqued your interest), then you ought to click on over to our archive of exhibitions at StoneCrop Gallery to be reminded of the great work you've seen at our space.  Artwork is still available and for sale!

Studies have shown that art can significantly improve quality of life.  What could be a better present than that?

Last few hours of the season...

Hi all,

 

The StoneCrop Gallery will be officially open for another hour and sixteen minutes.  This is your last chance (really down to the wire now) to see the Intern Show and the gallery before we close for the 2011 season.  Thank you for all the amazing feedback we have received for the show!  I will be sad to go, but working at StoneCrop has been an incomparable experience.  And after a glorious summer in Maine, it's off to Austin, Texas for me.  We will be open until 5:50 today, so stop by and see the gallery one last time before the withdrawal symptoms set in and you have to wait until next June (and we wouldn't want that).

 

Thank you all for a sublime 2011 season.  StoneCrop loves you!

 

-Allie

 

P.S. Oh right, Dana asked me to compliment myself on being a fabulous intern (did you say fabulous?).  The pleasure was all mine!

Intern Show is UP

We're sad to see Harold Feinstein's images go, but September's show is UP, with work by Laisa, lovely intern #1, and yours truly.  It is always a pleasure to see your own work on a wall, especially in a gallery I love and support.  And don't forget, the party—I mean opening reception—is THIS SATURDAY (17th) from 4-6.  We hope you can make it.  In the meantime, check out a couple photos.

Upcoming show at Panopticon Gallery!

We love Panopticon.

Boston's Panopticon Gallery, one of the oldest fine art photography galleries in the United States, is celebrating its 40th Anniversary!  From September 8th through October 31st, the gallery will be displaying close to seventy-five individual artists who have been asociated with Panopticon Gallery during its forty-year run.  This will be the gallery's largest group exhibition to date.  The opening reception, Thursday September 8th from 5:30-6:30pm, is sure to a good time.

Monday morning update

Post-Irene Update: everything is a-okay at the gallery—the stones wept (as usual) but the artwork is all fine.  Some strong winds rolled through Shore Road late last night taking down a few big branches, but for the most part the storm missed us.  Now that we have a week's supply of canned tuna, however, our thoughts are with those who have suffered damage over the past two days.

 

 

In other news, Harold Feinstein's show will be up for only ten more days! After that, Laisa's and my show will go up.  So come see it while you still can!  If you're in Maine, we hope you're out enjoying this beautiful day!

News @ the gallery

StoneCrop closed early yesterday and will be closed today, Wednesday.  Dana and I are taking the day off to check some tasks off the lists of our currently very busy lives!  We will most likely be having a shortened day tomorrow as well, but after Thursday we will be back to the usual schedule.  If you are in the area, don't hesitate to stop by the gallery; you can see the image above (Red Ranunculus), among others by Harold Feinstein—but only until September 9th!

We've got ghosts...

 

Spirit photograph, by Andrew Daneman, 1870

It has been said that the StoneCrop house may or may not be occupied by some..."supernatural friends."  Over the years, certain incidents have occurred; unexplained footsteps have been heard, chairs have been moved in the night, doors have been rattled inexplicably.  Maybe it's time Dana and I tried our hands at spirit photography.  Any advice?

Harold Feinstein Opening Recap

 

 

 

Yesterday afternoon, StoneCrop held an opening reception for Harold Feinstein's In Color.  The turnout was great!  Thank you to everyone who showed up to meet Harold and celebrate the beautiful artwork. 

Here are a few photos from the day, for those who weren't able to make it:
