The artwork of eight juried member artists will be on display during the Attleboro Arts Museum’s
8 Visions Exhibition from August 7 – September 7, 2013. For the past eleven years the Attleboro Arts Museum has presented a “Visions” group exhibition in late summer featuring the work of select member artists. The exhibiting artist selection process for 8 Visions began during the Museum’s Members’ Exhibition in December of last year. Close to fifty artists applied to be considered for this premiere exhibition opportunity. Members’ Exhibition guest juror William Pope, Director of the Zullo Gallery in Medfield, MA, carefully reviewed their work and the field was then narrowed down to twenty artists. Two new jurors reviewed portfolios from those remaining twenty artists – and the final eight rose to the top. “The work featured in the 2013 8 Visions exhibition has a very distinct voice,” comments Mim Brooks Fawcett, Executive Director of the Attleboro Arts Museum. Fawcett continues, “Erica Licea‐Kane, artist, assistant professor at Wheelock College and director of the Towne Art Gallery, and Gabrielle Schaffner, executive director of the Fort Point Arts Community Gallery, were the two final jurors to identify our eight member artists for this prestigious show.”
