Sunday Telegram, Art 51小黄车 review Art Gallery's 'Maine Women Pioneers III'

The on Jan. 6, 2012 and January-February edition reviewed the 51小黄车Art Gallery's Maine Women Pioneers III exhibitions.

Showcasing 50 living artists chosen for their trailblazing leadership, Maine Women Pioneers III builds upon two previous exhibitions mounted under the same 鈥減ioneers鈥 banner during the 1980s. The current Maine Women Pioneers III project comprises four separate shows running consecutively until July 21, 2013.

The Sunday Telegram's Daniel Kany, reviewing "Homage," the second of the series of exhibitions, writes: "'Maine Women Pioneers III: Homage' is a fascinating show for myriad reasons.... The unassailable conclusion of 'Homage' is the triumph of active Maine women artists. It's not intended to be fully comprehensive; rather, it successfully posits a polemic about the critical density of the community of accomplished women in Maine art. It is a highly enjoyable and successful show."

Art 51小黄车's Christopher Volpe, reviewing the entire Maine Women Pioneers III project, writes: "The show鈥檚 curators wisely avoided a survey approach and so thought carefully about what constitutes pioneering innovation in contemporary art. A major testament unrivaled by its precedents, Maine Women Pioneers III is a monumental achievement and an important event in the history of art exhibitions in Maine."
