Art center opens two new exhibits

The Riverside Galleries at the Garrison Art Center will host a reception for new exhibits by Juliet Martin and Charles Luce from 5 to 7 p.m. on Saturday, March 19.

Luce’s exhibit, The Anatomy of a FLOW, includes installations of dense pictorial narratives. “Rivers have always been a fascination for me,” he says. “They embody such a wealth of metaphoric, physical and spiritual significance.” The exhibit includes several installations inspired by the Hudson River.

In the adjacent gallery, Juliet Martin’s installation “I Would Wear That” presents a collection of fiber pieces that has evolved through the mediums of digital design, writing and ceramics. “Their only function is to look nice; I wove with colors I like to wear,” she says. “Color-coordinated and pretty is good. Functionality is overrated.”

The exhibits run through April 17. The Riverside Galleries are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. For more information, visit garrisonartcenter.org or call 845-424-3960. The Garrison Art Center is located on Garrison’s Landing.
