Event Details

Please join us for October's Weir Farm Artist-In-Residence reception with Michael Mark.

Co-sponsored by Weir Farm Art Center and Weir Farm National Historic Site and presented by Wilton Library. No charge. Registration suggested. Register online or call 203-762-6334.

Michael's subject matter is concerned with the depiction of ineffable moments that appear and disappear in the mist, the use of exaggerated color and the slippage between the real and unreal. After more than a decade of living in suburban Melbourne, Australia, he is keen to investigate the colors and compositions of  'home' and to more closely observe and paint the verdant shadows and saturated colors he associates with New England.

Weir Farm's Artist-in-Residence program (AIR) selects twelve artists to live and work at Weir Farm each year. To date, over 200 artists from throughout the U.S., as well as Tunisia, Germany, Australia, India and the Netherlands have participated in the AIR program. Visual artists apply for one month residencies in all media and diverse artistic points of view from traditional to experimental.
