IS182 names two fall residents

STOCKBRIDGE – IS183 Art School of the Berkshires has announced the selection of artists Andrew Davis and Claire Fox for its fall Citizen’s Hall Residency program starting Tuesday, Sept. 4.

The public is invited to join the fall residents at work during Stairwell Studio Visit hours on Saturday, Sept. 22, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. as well as the opening reception with artists talk on Wednesday, Oct. 3, from 6-8 p.m.

During their residency, the artists will create the installation “Dream Home,” a thematic exploration on a miniature scale addressing their own personal mythologies and incorporating painting, sculpture, installation and video.

Artists who work both independently and collaboratively in Berkshire County and elsewhere, Fox and Davis have also operated the Avalon Seafood Gallery and Grass Gallery in North Adams.

A twice-yearly program launched last April, the Citizen’s Hall Residency is both a showcase for local talent and provides an access point for the public to witness creative production in progress.
