“New Hampshire Inspired: A New Hampshire Collection” an exhibition running from Jan. 18 through Feb. 23 at the State Library in Concord, features artwork by New Hampshire artists who have been designated Lifetime Fellows with the State Arts Council. Lifetime Fellows are professional New Hampshire artists who have been awarded three Council fellowships for artistic excellence and professional commitment in their lifetime. So far, 10 New Hampshire artists in the performing, media and visual arts have achieved this distinction.
The following selected artworks will be on view as part of the exhibition at the State Library: “Marshland Grasses and Trees” by Carol Aronson-Shore of Portsmouth; “Angel Dog” by Jon Brooks of New Boston; “Still Life with Parrot Tulips” by James Aponovich of Hancock and a site-specific stone sculpture by Gary Haven Smith of Northwood.
The four newly acquired works will become part of the Arts Council’s Arts Bank collection and will find homes with state agencies through the “Adopt an Artwork” application process. Any state agency that occupies a state-owned building may apply.
