SUMMARY:“Draw Yourself Sleeping”
DESCRIPTION:Bennington College Sculpture Show \n\n\nOpening; Sunday\, December 8th\, 1pm – 4pm \n\n\nThe public is invited to “Draw Yourself Sleeping”\, an exhibition of work by fourteen Sculpture Students from Bennington College at the North Bennington Train Depot Gallery. The show opens  for a one-time only viewing and reception on Sunday\, Dec 8th\, 1pm – 4pm. The North Bennington Train Depot is located at 5 Depot Street in North Bennington. All are welcome and refreshments will be served. \n\n\nIn Bennington College’s Sculpture Studio / advanced practice course\, taught by faculty member John Umphlett\, students propose and execute projects of their own design. On exhibit will be work by Charlie Bell\, Jasmine Bete-Mitchell\,  Tali Mars\, Hollis Churchill\, Vic Coronel\, Julia Duva\, Chris Golovina\, Mac Goulis\, Aliza Khan\, Ethan Laird\, Nico Migdal\, Nicholas Pertz Kelley\, HaL Price\, and Lulu Wiley \n\n\n“’Making face’  is so important and engaging for the students\, to feel the pressure and realize it’s just a conversation. “  Umphlett states\,“Each student has been developing their practice and critiquing each other\, discussing prior critiques\, how the work can be read and what observations to further consider. Their works have been presented primarily on campus everywhere from controlled dark installation spaces to dance studios and outside. The students have been using this class to expand their advanced practices here at Bennington\, incorporating transferable skills and concepts developed in and outside of the visual arts. They have been challenging themselves to focus on work that pokes at complicated themes while they continue to direct material shaping towards their personal ethos.  The opportunity to show their work beyond the institution creates real world challenges. The practical aspects of installing a show combined with the responsibility toward self to propose their ideas into a larger community is priceless. The experience will help prepare the students to find out how to engage and listen and the best part\,celebrate and claim the experience.” \n\n\nThe exhibit is supported in part by the Vermont Arts Exchange and the Village of North Bennington. \nVic Coronel; performance\, projection\, video and sculpture

SUMMARY:"Surfs Up" - The Village School of North Bennington All Student Art Show
DESCRIPTION:“The Village School of North Bennington All Student Show is one of our favorite exhibitions to host” says Rhonda Ratray\, Artist in Residence at the Left Bank and curator of the Maurice Kahn Gallery\, “The artwork is exciting and creative and it’s wonderful to see the pride the students have in their work. I regularly hear from visitors to the gallery that they are delighted by the exhibition”. \nTeaching Artist\, Caitilin McAdoo and Assistant Maria Scully worked with the students throughout the school year to create a show in which you’ll see paintings\, ceramics\, papier mâché\, chickens\, fish\, things made with recycled materials\, and prints. Says Caitilin\, “We turned paper plates into jellyfish and chickens. We used shredded documents from the office to make our own paper clay and utilized egg cartons and plaster of Paris to make fish that move. We tried new techniques for acrylic paint pours. Sixth graders designed their own independent projects based on what they were interested in. Second Graders wrote a book. Fourth graders learned some techniques for painting formal portraits. We carved our own printing blocks and made prints. Fifth Graders made plywood fish and Third Graders used the scraps to make their own sculptures. Pre-k students learned that elephants sometimes turn out to be giraffes and tanks can feature laser pointers for cats”. \nDon’t miss one of our favorite shows of the year.
