James DeMarco grew up in Watertown and became a goaltender at age 5. It’s his life’s passion to stand between the pipes and keep the puck out of the net. Combining this with the love of cartooning Small Saves emerged in 1991 and took on a life of his own. “To play goal–then come home and draw Small Saves — is my ideal definition of a good day.”
Adria Arch’s “Wall Sculpture #4” is part of the “Abstract Art: Contemporary Approaches” exhibit at Mosesian Center for the Arts. The following information was provided by the Mosesian Center for the Arts:
Abstract Art: Contemporary Approaches, the upcoming exhibition at Mosesian Arts, showcases the myriad of distinct ways artists take to create abstract and non-objective work today. Rich textures, organic and geometric shapes, brilliant colors, and emphasis on process are the common threads that unite these works, from paintings to prints, collages, and drawings to exquisite fiber pieces and sculptural forms. However, the concepts behind the art are very different. Adria Arch’s wall sculptures are a delightful mixture of two-dimensional and three-dimensional forms. The painterly surfaces are rich and inviting and the colors are fresh and contemporary. The biomorphic and geometric shapes playfully interact.
