Vermont Art Guide, a quarterly magazine about the contemporary visual art scene in Vermont, published by Kasini House, has launched a cool new project. They asked five guest curators to nominate five artists they thought were worth watching in the coming year. They are profiling the nominees in this and an upcoming issue of the publication. I was one of the artists, nominated by Mary Admasian. Here's the spread about my work. Click the image for a larger view.
Some text from the editors: "Hardworking and productive, Van Fleet is one of the state's premier contemporary artists." And, from Mary Admasian, "With roots steeped in political activism and arts education, Janet is a stalwart and everbearing producer of endless collections of curiosities, assemblages, photographs, painting, and sculpture."
Half the profiled artists are exhibiting work at the Spotlight Gallery of the Vermont Arts Council in each of two exhibits. Here's the work I am showing, up through April, 2018 -- a puppetmaster from whose arms hang six of my new puppets.
I encourage you to learn about and subscribe to this publication, which is supporting the visual arts in Vermont and working to make the richness of Vermont's visual arts scene known within and outside the state's borders.
