The March/April show in the Gallery at Temple Habonim features works by two noted artists who work in very different styles.

Paula Visnoski, an award-winning artist, shows her versatility in her many mediums — watercolor, oil, graphic design, photography.  “Like the weather in New England, I am always changing,”  she says. Her work incorporates symbolism, imagery and a “oneness with the earth and all living things.”  In her words, “my art helps me to release what my ‘mind’s eye’ is experiencing.” 

Shirley Koller, sculptor, painter, curator, recently moved from the Washington, D.C., area to Providence.  Now living at Laurelmead, she works in two-dimensional art.  Her large acrylics reflect her personality, making bold statements and encouraging visual conversations with the viewer.  She is a master in the use of color.

The exhibit is on view from March 4 through April 30, with an artists’ reception March 8 from 1 to 3 pm.

The Gallery at Temple Habonim is at 165 New Meadow Road in Barrington. Gallery hours are Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Fridays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and by appointment.  For information, call 401-245-6536 or email gallery@templehabonim.org.
