Artist Statement:
I am intrigued with negative
space and have felt a need to
bring its energy forward. In
my quest to make line and
space resonate, I began to use
trees as my primary subject.
When combined with texture and
what has been referred to as a
Fauvistic approach to color,

The art of Ann Haaland is highlighted at a solo exhibition at the Wright Gallery. Titled “Sanguine by Nature,” the show runs through October 27 and includes semi-abstract and impressionistic oils, pigment stick, pastel and mixed media paintings on paper, board and canvas
“I try to create work that I hope is spiritually motivating and inviting to the viewer,” said Ms. Haaland. “Using simple imagery, usually through natural themes, I work to capture a basic impulse to stop and stare. My paintings are my way to share a moment of serenity or introspection.”
Ms. Haaland went on to say that she believes that such quiet moments seem harder to find in today’s frenetic society, “which is why people come to the Region to visit, to stay and why art needs to be part of all our lives, not just in museums, but in our homes, in our schools, in our towns.” Her work, while not true to the realism of the paintings of the Hudson River School artists in general, does share the same transcendental roots of the movement that Emerson referred to in Thoughts on Art, that “painting should become a vehicle through which the universal mind could reach the mind of mankind”.
The Wright Gallery is located at 50 North Front Street in Kingston. The gallery is open Wednesday through Saturday from noon to 5:30 pm. For more information, please call 845 331 8217.
