Newton Art Association presents: Demo with Betsy Silverman | Collage
April 14, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Working in a collage style that she calls “fragmented realism,” Betsy Silverman trains her eye upon discarded magazines – which she selects, cuts, and glues to a canvas, in order to transform the old images and text into unique, multidimensional portraits, still lifes, cityscapes, and representations of New England – especially the Boston area.
A graduate of Cornell University and the Rhode Island School of Design, Betsy holds a Master of Architecture degree, and her work is infused with architectural sensibility – employing perspective, light and shadow, reflections, or the scale of various elements, so as to create a sense of depth and perspective.
