Putnam Corridor Gallery features
Anna Ionkin through June
PUTNAM — The first ever public display of the amazing art by Anna Ionkin is currently on display at the Corridor Gallery in the Putnam Municipal Complex. The show, titled “Many Paths,” features landscapes from around the Quiet Corner and places Anna has traveled over the past year. Mixed in are smaller moments from her home.
She sums up her approach to art: Nature is an overflowing well of inspiration but also a source of connection. Whether I focus on a bird, plant, a whole landscape or just the sky, I try to reimagine the familiar to make them feel more fantastical as if looking at them with new eyes by over emphasizing colors and stylization. My work connects with the people in my community who share appreciation for simple pleasures that come from hikes, bird watching, and gardening. The moments and scenes I render have a New England charm but also explore my personal experience living in rural Connecticut.”
The show will be on display until the end of June. The Corridor Gallery, sponsored by the Putnam Arts Council, is in the Putnam Municipal Complex, 200 School St. Hours and more information are available at PutnamCtArtsCouncil.com
