Join us for our opening reception for Rooted in Activism:
Sunday, June 14, 5-7 PM at the Brickbottom Gallery

This exhibition began as a tribute to Felice Regan, a founding member of the Brickbottom Artist Building whose printmaking gave visual force to urgent social and political issues, from anti-war activism to environmental justice.

By placing Regan’s work from the 1960s–80s alongside contemporary artists, Brickbottom Gallery traces the continued relevance of the issues she exposed: war, inequality, environmental destruction, and the targeting of vulnerable communities.

Exhibiting artists: Linda Bond, William Evertson, Shea Justice, Ellen Shattuck Pierce, Felice Regan, Susan Schmidt.

Special thanks to Massachusetts College of Art and Design for their involvement in the show.

Up next in the gallery: Rooted in Activism

On View: June 12-July 12
Reception: Sunday June 14, 5-7 pm

This exhibition began as a tribute and memorial to Felice Regan, a founding member of the Brickbottom Artist Building, an artist who used the power of printmaking to disseminate ideas from anti-war activism during the Vietnam War to the plight of our planet through endangered species education. Regan’s powerful vision points to moments in history and at the same time highlight the cyclical nature of events and ideas. We find ourselves right now dealing with the same ugliness of war on so many levels - demonization of the most vulnerable - the poor, the immigrant, the disabled. We are seeing the rewriting of history and the dialing back of steps forward our country has made concerning women’s rights, gay rights and racial equality. The issues Regan exposed in the 60’s are still with us and artists today are using powerful imagery to call attention to the gravity of these times.

Brickbottom Gallery has connected Regan’s messages from the 60’s-80’s with invited contemporary artists who are boldly showing uncomfortable visuals and ideas of this moment.

Exhibiting Artists: Linda Bond, William Evertson, Shea Justice, Ellen Shattuck Pierce, Felice Regan, Susan Schmidt.
