Andrea S. Keogh Art and Design, a new gallery at 59 Bellevue Avenue, is featuring the exhibit “Seeing Black and RedRed” from April 1st until June 1st. Each of the works are from different periods, however, the unifying theme of the collection is the color red, including fiery red pieces like Donald Sultan’s two prints, Red and Black and Black and Red. The way he uses the plane and experiments with lithography creates a work of art that is simultaneously representational and abstract.

Newport Art Museum will be hosting “Art After Dark” on gallery night. The gallery talk consists of domestic affairs: “Domesticity, Identity, and the Home” with Francine Weiss, Senior Curator. It will also include an education event, featuring presentations from six teaching artists.

Roger King Fine Arts on Spring Street offers a diverse array of paintings by 19th and 20th century artists including African-American art, cityscapes, figurative and genre, landscape, marine and coastal scenes, still life, and modernist art. Beautiful new additions of summer scenes include Charles Woodbury’s Ocean View near Perkins Cove, Oqunquit Maine from 1911 and Mabel May Woodward’s Young Boy String Fishing. 

Newport Contemporary Fine Arts, located at Goddard Row, Brick Marketplace, will be hosting an opening for their spring exhibition on April Newport Gallery Night at 7:00pm. Featured artists will be Jessica Dean Rosner – Ink on Paper, Meredith Morten – Ceramics, and Peter Cohen – Sculptures.

He aims for the funnybone, with the craziness, and excesses of the 30’s.
