The Cahoon Museum of American Art is opening a new exhibition, âShape Shifters: Jackie deRuyter|Kate Nelson,â with an opportunity to meet the artists at the museumâs spring open house on Sunday, May 2, from 10 AM to 4 PM. Admission to the museum is free and the artists will be available to greet visitors at scheduled intervals. Visit the museumâs website or call 508-428-7581 for details and to register.
In âShape Shifters,â Brewster artists Jackie deRuyter and Kate Nelson present their most recent abstract paintings and sculptures in a colorful, bright, and uplifting exhibition that runs through June 5.
Ms. deRuyterâs sculptures are created by using an innovative process that transforms flat, hand-painted fabric and canvas into dynamic three-dimensional forms. The artist first developed her complex process for making sculpture 15 years ago, when she began creating stitched, stiff fabric that she then sewed into curved, freestanding shapes. Current
