For GREEN ROOM, artist and curator Agnes Field. On exhibit through March 25th.

The Green Room

Fairweather House and Gallery

612 Broadway St.

Seaside, Oregon

Fittingly, the first Fairweather presentation of the year, a month-long exhibit, the GREEN ROOM, spotlights art by regional fellow gallerists.

In the entertainment business, the green room is the space in a theatre or similar venue that functions as a waiting room and lounge for artists before, during, and after a performance or show when they are not engaged on stage. The origin of the term is often ascribed to such rooms historically being painted green.

Featuring:

Watercolors by Bill Baily, exhibiting artist from the Portland Art Museum

Fresco art by Agnes Field, founder and past president of the non-profit Astoria Visual Arts

Mixed media work by Jan Rimerman, curator for Lakewood Center Gallery and Rain Spark Gallery Director

Abstracts by Bill Shumway, founder of Pegasus Gallery and creator of the Vistas and Vineyards en plein art program

In a contemporary green room spin, for March, Fairweather artists ready to take the stage to do what they do best: mingle with other safely with other artists and patrons.

Agnes Field, artist and curator has a studio on a working farm a few miles outside the Empire of Astoria, OR in the center of Cascadia.

Field, of native Chinook Indian and Finnish descent, uses non-traditional materials and occasionally found objects in paintings attempting to imbue the kind of energy found in leftover artifacts.
