The Art Lover's Guide to Collecting Fine Art in New England, Cape Cod & the Islands
July 2023
|American Art Collector
July marks the peak of the summer season on the East Coast and it's especially festive in the picturesque towns that populate the New England seaboard and the quaint islands around it.
-
It's a beloved time of boating, barbecues, fresh seafood and long days at the beach. The colors are bright white and cerulean blue, with salty breezes, sunshine, sparkling seas and a high time for galleries to highlight the incredible artwork they have to offer.
The artists and galleries featured in the following pages will transport you to the most quintessential New England locales like Martha's Vineyard, Provincetown and Chatham on Cape Cod, the bucolic shores of Truro, Massachusetts, the rugged beauty of New Hampshire and even the rocky coastline of Maine. So, if you can't make it to the East Coast this summer, sit back, allow the art in the following pages, which celebrates its beauty and creative spirit, to lead the way.

Provincetown, Massachusetts, is special for many reasons, but ask any artist what attracts them to this former fishing village and chances are they'll say something about the light, which has been drawing creative visionaries to the tip of Cape Cod since the late 19th century.

Finding Humor in Hubris
Larry Blizard has nothing against painting but at some point in his long career as an artist, working across many mediums, the 85-year-old observed that the drawings in his sketchbook seemed to contain a special quality that the paintings he was creating at the time, did not-a kind of vitality or intensity. \"Gradually, I began to devote more effort to sketching, until drawing took over completely,\" he says. Drawing, he found, also calms his nerves. \"I lose myself in the act of moving my pencil, bringing to life forms from my imagination, and the whole process becomes a kind of meditation.\"

Curated for Collectors
One of the most anticipated shows of the year returns to Arcadia Contemporary this September. True to tradition, the 12th annual Five & Under exhibition features the gallery's top artists alongside emerging talent scouted by gallery owner Steve Diamant. An invitation from Diamant, who is known for his discerning eye, to participate in the show can be a breakthrough moment for an artist. It's also a tremendous opportunity for collectors, as all of the 100 to 200 works are priced at $5,000 or less.

Facial Recognition
Aportrait serves many purposes. It can remind us of who we are or who someone once was, whether depicted in great accuracy or through symbolism. While our fascination with a portrait is often an ineffable experience, there's one simple explanation of the appeal of a human face: connection—made possible through technique, style and color.

Summer Celebration
Gallery 1261 is gearing up for its annual 1261 Summer Show, featuring works by more than 10 of the Denver gallery's top artists. Collectors can expect to find at least 50 fresh and original artworks. The growing roster of participating artists includes Gregory Block, Scott Conary, Valerio D'Ospina, Hollis Dunlap, Daniel Sprick, Tibor Nagy, Vincent Xeus, Elizabeth Zanzinger and Heather Neill, with others being added as the show approaches. Among the many show highlights, is the detailed work of Gregory Block, known for his exploration of an array of subject matter. \"My work has always been, and I hope always will be, a fluid interpretation of how I see the world,\" explains Block. \"That means no subject matter or technique is ever off the table. I consider myself a contemporary realist because while I generally strive to paint the 'reality' of my subjects, I do so with a keen awareness of the fact that all our true realities are subjective.\"

Poetic Inspiration
A new exhibition currently on view at 33 Contemporary, A Poetic Response draws meaning from the deeply human endeavor of poetry and visual art. In many ways, these two art forms are the purest distillation of life, truth and personhood. While portraiture and figurative works make up a large portion of the show's subject matter, viewers can also delve into the hidden meanings behind a variety of subjects.
