Art Gallery Reception, St. Francis by the Sea

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

5:00 - 7:00 PM

 

 

The featured artist for July is Evelyn Nateman.  Evelyn was born in Columbus, OH.  She earned her BSc in Education and her M.A. in Adult Education from the Ohio State University.  She then earned a M.H. in Biblical Art, Archaeology, and History from Ohio State and Hebrew University in Jerusalem.  For many years she taught a wide range of subjects including Hebrew, Bible, Ancient and Modern Israel, and art at Congregation Tifereth Israel, in Columbus, grades four through adult.

 

Evelyn has worked in fabric art for many years, beginning with embroidery, weaving, and all aspects of machine sewing.  She began experimenting with papercutting 20 years ago after seeing an exhibit of papercuts at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.  She frequently incorporates Biblical themes and ancient artifacts and architecture within her papercuttings as her subject matter.  Her papercuttings and commissions may be found in private collections throughout the U.S. and Israel.  She has participated in more than 40 exhibits that have featured her work.  At age 85, Evelyn is still creating beautiful, intricate papercuttings!

 

 

Evelyn Nateman Artist's Statement:

 

"I have always felt the need to scribble, write, draw, embroider, sew...CREATE!  I have also felt the desire to teach, and have done so in formal and informal situations since my teens.  Papercutting gives me the opportunity to combine artistic endeavors and experimentation in new forms and techniques with my studies of ancient Israel, its art and architecture, and my need to teach and share with others.  I use my papercuttings to portray a holiday, and event, or a feeling expressed through a psalm or proverb." 

 

 

Please join Evelyn Nateman on July 2nd, 2010 for the Reception from 5:00-7:00 PM and enjoy her amazing work.  The works will be on display at St. Francis by the Sea until July 30th, 2010 and may be viewed from 9:00 am til 1:00 pm, Monday - Thursday.

Amy,  I must admit, when I heard about this exhibit I thought it was one I'd probably skip.  It just didn't sound interesting to me.  But reading this blog and seeing the pictures (I especially like the sailboat) now I can't wait to see more.  See you there!

Looks like another great event at St. Francis by the Sea!

Evelyn Nateman seems like a very interesting person so attendance should be high.
