SUMMARY:The Accidental Masterpiece (Intermediate to Advanced) with Ed Chesnovitch
DESCRIPTION:Cape Cod Museum of Art \n(6) Tuesdays\, October 21 – December 2\, 2025 \n10:00 am – 12:30 pm. \nEd Chesnovitch concentrates on the importance of Design\, Value\, Color\, and Rhythm to make students’ art stronger with their personal voice. \nA good painting always needs a few things from the painter: Be Passionate\, Be Fearless\, and Trust the Process! Being open to trying new techniques and taking risks\, keeps things fresh and exciting. In this class\, we’ll concentrate on the importance of Design\, Value\, Color\, and Rhythm to make your art stronger with your personal voice! Learn to simplify and get the bones of your painting down first\, without wasting time in the beginning with unnecessary details… “ya don’t put up the curtains till the house is built”! Discover the importance of building up a surface history in your paintings\, how “taking off” is just as important as “putting on”\, as well as the magnificence of mark-making. Weekly exercises will definitely get you out of your comfort zone and give you permission to play\, explore\, and throw the concept of perfection out the back door! Get ready to paint and have some fun\, because you never know when the next accidental masterpiece comes to fruition. This is not a beginner’s class and is not formatted for watercolors. Bring the supplies you want to work with for the first class and we’ll take it from there. \nRegister at: https://www.ccmoa.org/events/the-accidental-masterpiece-intermediate-to-advanced-with-ed-chesnovitch-1-10 \n

SUMMARY:Lee and Tennessee
DESCRIPTION:Lee and Tennessee\n\nSaturday\, October 25\, 2025\,  2:00 – 3:00 pm. Followed by a short Q/A. \n\nNew York director David Kaplan presents actors Luke Philip Bosco\, John Dennis Anderson\, and artist/actor Laura Shabott\, in collaboration with Berta Walker Gallery\, and the Tennessee Williams Festival. \nFrom Director David Kaplan: This is a performance event with Laura Shabott practicing her own version of Lee Krasner’s 1976 breakthrough moment cutting up her early Provincetown drawings then reassembling them into new artwork\, along with related scene work written by playwright Tennessee Williams and performed by three actors. We will be drawing a parallel to what Williams did in the late 1970s by reconfiguring his realistic 1940 Provincetown one-act\, The Parade\, into the surreal full-length play Something Cloudy\, Something Clear. \nRegister at:  https://www.ccmoa.org/events/lee-and-tennessee-oct-2025

Learn to simplify and get the bones of your painting down first\, without wasting time in the beginning with unnecessary details… “ya don’t put up the curtains till the house is built”! Discover the importance of building up a surface history in your paintings\, how “taking off” is just as important as “putting on”\, as well as the magnificence of mark-making. Weekly exercises will definitely get you out of your comfort zone and give you permission to play\, explore\, and throw the concept of perfection out the back door! Get ready to paint and have some fun\, because you never know when the next accidental masterpiece comes to fruition. This is not a beginner’s class and is not formatted for watercolors. Bring the supplies you want to work with for the first class and we’ll take it from there. \nRegister at: https://www.ccmoa.org/events/the-accidental-masterpiece-intermediate-to-advanced-with-ed-chesnovitch-1-10 \n

SUMMARY:Art of the Ashcan School: highlighting the struggles and experiences of the working class
DESCRIPTION:Sue Altman discusses the Ashcan School\, a significant movement within American art that emerged in the early 20th century. \nThis school is characterized by its focus on the everyday life of urban America\, particularly in cities like New York. The artists associated with the Ashcan School sought to depict the realities of life in a rapidly changing society\, often highlighting the struggles and experiences of the working class. \nThe term “Ashcan School” was coined by art critics in the early 1900s\, referring to the gritty\, unrefined style of painting that these artists employed. One of the key themes of the Ashcan School was the portrayal of the city as a vibrant\, yet challenging environment. Artists often painted scenes from the streets\, including bustling markets\, crowded tenements\, and lively social gatherings. Their works served as a commentary on the socio-economic conditions of the time\, reflecting the complexities of modern urban existence.

SUMMARY:Carmen Cicero: Drawings and Watercolors
DESCRIPTION:CARMEN CICERO\nDRAWINGS AND WATERCOLORS\nTales of Intrigue\, Danger and Humor \nExhibition Dates: July 3 – October 5\, 2025\nThe exhibition is sponsored by Bob and Cathey Portrie. \nThis summer\, the Cape Cod Museum of Art is pleased to present a major exhibition featuring the art of renowned artist\, Carmen Cicero. \nCarmen Cicero has been a prominent figure for over seventy years in the New York and Cape Cod contemporary art scene. While his early work focused on Abstract Expressionism (influenced by Robert Motherwell among others)\, he was later drawn to the figurative. After a 1971 fire destroyed his New Jersey studio\, and with it\, his entire body of work\, Cicero’s art took a personal turn- combining figuration\, landscape and wit in compositions with Surrealist overtones\, a style that became emblematic of his later work’s representations and state of mind. \nCurated by acclaimed art critic\, David Ebony\, this solo exhibition will showcase works on paper in Carmen’s favorite mediums – pencil\, ink and watercolor. “We want this exhibition to be uplifting for visitors\, so we have selected many playful\, colorful works… including those with themes of music and the painting process.” says Ebony who also oversaw the production of the newly published\, monumental book Carmen Cicero Drawings and Watercolors: Tales of Intrigue\, Danger and Humor. David also wrote the essay for the book. \nExhibition-related programming includes: \nThursday\, 7/17\nGallery Talk and Opening Reception – 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm\nTalk is presented by Curator\, David Ebony\nFollowed by Reception 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm \nFriday\, 7/11 & Saturday\, 7/12\n2-Day Painting Workshop with Joe Diggs: Color and Value Relationships \nSaturday\, 7/26 – 1:00 – 2:00 pm\nIntense Visual Distortions: A Presentation by artist Bethany Noel \nSunday\, 8/3\, 5:00 – 9:00 pm\n“Jazz Club” CCMoA’s Annual Gala when Carmen Cicero will receive the 2025 MUSE Artist Award. \nFriday\, 9/12\, 5 pm\nPanel Discussion on the Life & Career of Carmen Cicero with David Ebony (curator and moderator)\, Deborah Forman\, Bill Evaul and\nMary Abell \nCarmen Cicero was a founding member of the Long Point Gallery in Provincetown\, MA. He has had over 70 solo exhibitions\, been in over 220 group exhibitions\, and has shown at such venues as Museum of Modern Art\, New York (1953\, 1955\, 1957); Newark Museum (1955\, 1964\, 1966\, 1967); Art Institute of Chicago (1957); Fine Arts Pavilion\, New York World’s Fair (1964); Whitney Annual (later the Whitney Biennial)\, New York (1955\, 1957\, 1960\, 1961\, 1963\, 1966); as well as the Guggenheim Museum. His work is in the collections of 33 museums.\nPlease see attached bio and other materials for more information.

SUMMARY:The Life and Art of Carmen Cicero: A Panel Discussion Moderated by Curator David Ebony
DESCRIPTION:David Ebony moderates a discussion on Carmen Cicero\, now in the midst of his seventh decade in the contemporary art world of New York City. \nHis works of the 1950s—collected by the Museum of Modern Art\, the Guggenheim\, the Whitney\, and other major museums—combined the gestures of Abstract Expressionism with the complex emergent forms of Surrealist automatism. In the 1960s\, Cicero was one of the first members of the American avant-garde to return to figuration\, pursuing\, through the 1960s and 1970s\, a style called “figurative expressionism.” This evolved\, beginning in the 1990s\, into his more recent “visionary” mode\, in which he depicts\, with a startling clarity\, mysterious scenes animated by multiple contradictory feelings—unfulfilled desires\, jealousy\, despair\, and isolation—as well as a generous dose of humor.

SUMMARY:Carmen Cicero: Drawings and Watercolors
DESCRIPTION:CARMEN CICERO\nDRAWINGS AND WATERCOLORS\nTales of Intrigue\, Danger and Humor \nExhibition Dates: July 3 – October 5\, 2025\nThe exhibition is sponsored by Bob and Cathey Portrie. \nThis summer\, the Cape Cod Museum of Art is pleased to present a major exhibition featuring the art of renowned artist\, Carmen Cicero. \nCarmen Cicero has been a prominent figure for over seventy years in the New York and Cape Cod contemporary art scene. While his early work focused on Abstract Expressionism (influenced by Robert Motherwell among others)\, he was later drawn to the figurative. After a 1971 fire destroyed his New Jersey studio\, and with it\, his entire body of work\, Cicero’s art took a personal turn- combining figuration\, landscape and wit in compositions with Surrealist overtones\, a style that became emblematic of his later work’s representations and state of mind. \nCurated by acclaimed art critic\, David Ebony\, this solo exhibition will showcase works on paper in Carmen’s favorite mediums – pencil\, ink and watercolor. “We want this exhibition to be uplifting for visitors\, so we have selected many playful\, colorful works… including those with themes of music and the painting process.” says Ebony who also oversaw the production of the newly published\, monumental book Carmen Cicero Drawings and Watercolors: Tales of Intrigue\, Danger and Humor. David also wrote the essay for the book. \nExhibition-related programming includes: \nThursday\, 7/17\nGallery Talk and Opening Reception – 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm\nTalk is presented by Curator\, David Ebony\nFollowed by Reception 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm \nFriday\, 7/11 & Saturday\, 7/12\n2-Day Painting Workshop with Joe Diggs: Color and Value Relationships \nSaturday\, 7/26 – 1:00 – 2:00 pm\nIntense Visual Distortions: A Presentation by artist Bethany Noel \nSunday\, 8/3\, 5:00 – 9:00 pm\n“Jazz Club” CCMoA’s Annual Gala when Carmen Cicero will receive the 2025 MUSE Artist Award. \nFriday\, 9/12\, 5 pm\nPanel Discussion on the Life & Career of Carmen Cicero with David Ebony (curator and moderator)\, Deborah Forman\, Bill Evaul and\nMary Abell \nCarmen Cicero was a founding member of the Long Point Gallery in Provincetown\, MA. He has had over 70 solo exhibitions\, been in over 220 group exhibitions\, and has shown at such venues as Museum of Modern Art\, New York (1953\, 1955\, 1957); Newark Museum (1955\, 1964\, 1966\, 1967); Art Institute of Chicago (1957); Fine Arts Pavilion\, New York World’s Fair (1964); Whitney Annual (later the Whitney Biennial)\, New York (1955\, 1957\, 1960\, 1961\, 1963\, 1966); as well as the Guggenheim Museum.
