A special gallery showing of North Fork landscape subjects painted over the past two years is coming to Greenport.
The Kapell Gallery welcomes Bronx artist Daniel Hauben back to its Greenport gallery space for a show in partnership with East End Arts, which has generously provided him with a series of one-week residencies. A portion of the proceeds will benefit East End Arts.
The Kapell Gallery hopes that the community will agree that the show offers a refreshing perspective on the beauty and culture of our region. Subjects include Paumanok Vineyards, Latham Farm Stand, Greenport Shipyard, Greenport Power Plant, the Greenport Shelter Island Ferry slip, the Baiting Hollow Hummingbird Sanctuary, and the ghostly but stately mansion at the corner of First & Center Streets in Greenport.
The art show will open with a party on Saturday, August 20, 2016 at 5 p.m. and run through September 25, 2016. Meet the artist at the party; the public is welcome to attend this free event. Gallery open thereafter by chance or by appointment. Kapell Gallery is located at 400 Front Street in Greenport.
For over 30 years, Daniel Hauben has focused on capturing the everyday life of the world around him. He has had over 30 national and international solo exhibitions, including The Bronx Museum of the Arts and the American Embassy in Berlin. He is a recipient of the Edgar Alan Poe Award for Artistic Excellence from The Bronx County Historical Society, an eight-time winner of the BRIO Award from the Bronx Council on the Arts, and has been awarded artistic residencies in Spain, Germany, Costa Rica, Virginia, Connecticut and California. As part of the Bronx Centennial celebrations (2014-2015), he had six solo exhibitions in The Bronx. His work is in the collections of The White House, Library of Congress, Museum of the City of NY, NY Historical Society, Harvard University, and Zimmerli Art Museum.
