In discussing the use of glamour in literature, Judith Brown notes that writers “reach not for the shallow gift of illusion…, but rather the refiguration of the world, from filth to resplendence” (Glamour in Six Dimensions, 2018). Extending Brown’s theorization of glamour in literature to the visual arts, Strategies of Resplendence considers the strategies that artists use to present the ordinary anew, to evoke wonder, and to bewitch.
Members Open: Small Works
Provincetown Art Association and Museum
November 19, 2021 — January 9, 2022
Each year PAAM mounts upwards of 5 members’ open and juried exhibitions in which participants display their work alongside some of America’s most noteworthy artists. These exhibitions represent the work of PAAM’s contemporary artist-members, many of whom live on Cape Cod either full-time or for part of the year. While the work varies greatly in media and approach, each artist-member joins a long roster of distinguished artists who have studied, taught, and exhibited at PAAM over the past 100 years.
