Moscow Made American Born
Saturday September 19 - Saturday October 31
Ober Gallery 6 N. Main Street Kent, CT
The exciting show featuring works by Mark Kelner is all about the landscape of text and how false idols prop up a system of consumerism where things and people are commodities. And, it's all done through the lens of satire, kitsch, and cliche. So, enjoy and good and well-needed laugh too! Ober Gallery
"Celebrity (After Warhol)"
Saturday October 10 - Sunday December 6
Craven Contemporary 4 Fulling Lane Kent Barns Kent, CT
Celebrity (After Warhol)” opened Saturday, October 10th. The show looks at how several leading contemporary artists have captured celebrities, all with a nod to Warhol or the pop style he made so recognizable. Artists included in the show are Jeremy Kost, Chris Levine, Russell Young, Deborah Kass, Charles Lutz, and of course Andy Warhol himself. Here in the ‘After Warhol’ theme is a vintage print from Sunday B Morning ‘Marilyn #30’. Silkscreen on Lenox Museum Board. 36” by 36”. These prints were created with the same tools and methods Andy Warhol used himself for the original editions, the difference being they carry a ‘printed by Sunday B Morning’ and ‘fill in your own signature’ on the reverse. More information on all the works in the show on request. Craven Contemporary

Eric Forstmann - Continuance
Saturday October 17, 11:00 AM - Sunday November 15
Eckert Fine Art 12 Old Barn Road Kent Barns
It’s 2020 and Eckert Fine Art celebrates 20 years representing the Realist artist, Eric Forstmann, first in Naples FL and now in Kent, CT. Eric’s current show CONTINUANCE, running October 17 through November 15 also commemorates his 20th exhibit with the gallery. Gallery Hours: Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday - 11 am - 5 pm The artist will be in the gallery every Saturday for the run of the show from 11 am -1 pm
Through the years Eric has continued to flourish as an artist keeping true to his roots, painting from life with a keen eye for detail. The work in this show was done mostly during the sequestered period of the pandemic and was a cathartic experience for the artist. Whether holed up in his Torrington, CT studio space or wandering alone in the New England landscape, his work still exhibits the qualities that Steve Litt of Art News wrote in 2008: "Eric Forstmann brings insouciance and rumpled informality to the tradition of trompe l'oeil still life painting. Forstmann's self-deprecating humor adds to the likable Everyman persona that comes across in his work. His paintings are relaxed, unfussy performances that focus the viewer on the sheer pleasure of seeing." Eckert Fine Art
