More from Michael Stasiuk's show, "Animalia," at the George Marshall Gallery in York, Maine. Michael has shown at The Art Complex Museum a few times over the last twenty or so years. Most recently, in "Some Assembly Required" in 2018.

Today is National Black Cat Day! Black cats have an undeserved reputation for being bad luck, especially during the Halloween season as they’re associated with witches and other spooky things. National Black Cat Day aims to eliminate the stigma by celebrating the lovable furry felines. There are more black cats than any other color!
Artist Wanda Gág created this wood engraving entitled, Cats at the Window in 1929. In addition to being a prolific printmaker, Gág was widely known for her children’s books, including Millions of Cats (1928). The book won the Newbury Honor Award in 1929. Millions of Cats is considered a classic in children’s literature, has never been out of print and is the oldest American picture book still in production.

Baseball player by Michael Stasiuk at the George Marshall Store Gallery in York, Maine. This is part of "Animalia," Michael's part of the group show. So nice to be making a few curatorial trips again.

This barn (next to the George Marshall Store Gallery) was owned by John Hancock. He used the building as storage for the goods he sold to the stores on coastal New England.

Mary Harding has built the gallery into one of New England's best over the past 25 years. The gallery was first a store (opening in 1861) and later home to the York Art Association.

The Chameleon Arts Ensemble opens its fall 2020 virtual chamber music season with a colorful avian-themed program – recorded outdoors, among the birds – on the grounds of The Art Complex Museum, in Duxbury, MA.
The concert, titled “communing with nature,” includes a selection of Duos for two violins by Béla Bartók; Franz Joseph Haydn’s sparkling C Major String Quartet, Op. 33, No. 3, “The Bird;” and John Luther Adams’ stunningly beautiful songbirdsongs for two piccolos and three percussion. Adams describes his songs as “echoes of rare moments and places where the voices of birds have been clear and I have been quiet enough to hear.” The result is an intimate dialogue between people, music, and nature.
It will be available to stream on-demand on Chameleon’s website (chameleonarts.org) from Saturday, October 24 at 7 PM through Saturday, October 31, 11:59 PM EST, and will additionally include artist interviews and downloadable program booklets.

🍵🤲 It may be hard to tell by this photo, but this Sencha teapot by Kakumi Mizu is practically small enough to fit in the palm of your hand!
In 1973, at the time Sam Morse and Loise Cort visited the Kakumi family, acquiring wares on behalf of Carl A. Weyerhaeuser, Mizu was one of only a few women that were active potters in Bizen.
The Bizen kilns, located just to the east of the modern city of Okayama, in what was once Bizen Province, have been active since the eighth century. Characterized by its dark grey stoneware body that generally fires to brick-red, brown, or deep bronze color, Bizen ware is fired for a long period in the kiln without glaze, creating subtle gradations in distinctive seasoned coloring. The surface of Bizen ware ranges from matt to sheen and, with skill, colors can appear in a multitude of reds, yellows, and blues. Bizen ware, with its lack of artifice, held great appeal for Carl Weyerhaeuser, and it became a major part of the collection.
