NEW AMERICAN PAINTINGS

Waterborne spacer Anne's work is included in the Northeast competition edition of New American Paintings.

Juror Monica Ramirez-Montagut, Curator of the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum writes of Anne's work: "Her paintings imagine an environment that goes beyond the human surface into the underground, exploring the possible colors and textures of sediment and strata. They depict wonderful surprises, like large bodies of water, yet the richness and possibility evident in these invented landscapes exist on planes not accessible to us."

SOLO EXHIBIT AT DANFORTH MUSEUM OF ART, FRAMINGHAM, MA

Waterlines
spacer A solo exhibit, "Waterlines", was on view at the Danforth Museum of Art, 123 Union Street, Framingham, MA, March 20 – May 16, 2010.

This exhibit pays homage to lakes, aquifers and oceans threatened by the Environment and climate change. A concern for the disappearance of Nature as a place to go and be is deeply embedded in this body of work.

While working mostly from her imagination, Neely creates places that are a conglomerate of many landscapes she has seen and absorbed over her lifetime and also from spending summers in Maine. There will be an artist’s talk on May 9th at 3:00pm.

Boston Sunday Globe Review

McQuaid, Cate. "Variations on space, depth, shadow," Boston Sunday Globe, April 18, 2010

"...'Surprise', shows off this artist's deft touch, her playful, daring gift for color (the palette here is downright giddy), and the satisfying way she balances pattern with passion....Every piece of 'Surprise' lives up to its title, from the sensual, glistening sky to the drippy wash of greens and browns, like root systems digging into that violet half-circle, to a wild patchwork of green, gold, and pink in the background, like geological stratifications mingling under the earth's surface."
