BigTown Gallery is pleased to announce a simultaneous showing of works by the two American masters, Bernard Chaet (b.1924) and Charles Cajori (b.1921). For the breadth of exploration and depth of result long evident in each artist's work, they have both received Lifetime Achievement in Painting awards from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
The exhibition of paintings, drawings, and prints--selected from work over the last five decades--offered by these two singularly distinctive master painters, presents a rare opportunity to the Vermont arts community. Both artists have lived, worked, and taught in New England for most of their lives. Bernard Chaet's landscape paintings include many painted in Vermont and along the Maine Coast. Charles Cajori is known chiefly for his abstraction of the figure; but this show includes paintings and drawings of both the figure and New England landscapes. These major New England artists are well known nationally, and are in many collections both in the US and abroad.
