WHB Historical Society: Antique Fire Apparatus Exhibition

by Saunders & Associates

Saturday, July 10th, 2021
10:00am – 4:00pm

Great Lawn
Westhampton Beach, NY

Apparatus from the 1920s, 30s, 40s will be on display, as well as a Fire Prevention Trailer and Fire Education Program.

Firefighting in the area dates back to the 1800s, but organized firefighting in Westhampton Beach originated in 1904 with the formation of the Quogue and Westhampton Beach Fire Department. For 117 years, the men and women of the Westhampton Beach Fire Department or its predecessor, have served their neighbors by training and performing the duties and responsibilities of dedicated, courageous firefighters … the true spirit of volunteerism.

Plus! Visit the Westhampton Beach Historical Society’s Tuthill House Museum to see the exhibition “The History of the Fire Service On the 25th Anniversary of the Sunrise Wildfire.” This exhibit will be open the day of the Antique Fire Apparatus Exhibition from 10 AM to 4 PM. Free admission!

MM Fine Art Gallery’s Brian O’Leary Exhibition

by Saunders & Associates

Opening Reception:
Saturday, July 10, 2021
6:00pm – 8:00pm

On View
Saturday, July 10, 2021 – Sunday, July 25th, 2021

MM FINE ART
4 North Main Street
Southampton, NY 11968

​We are pleased to present the Brian O’Leary exhibition, In Perspective, opening July 10 with a reception from 5 to 8 PM. The exhibition will remain on view through July 25, 2021.

​O’Leary’s objective is to create paintings without intent or design, describing the painting process as “waiting for something to happen that I wouldn’t have thought of making.” A dynamic painter, he rotates the canvas throughout the painting process to ensure there is no horizon line, no sense of gravity, no landscape. Narrative elements are blurred out. If there is any narrative, he ensures us, it is not coming from him. Manipulating tar and oil paint, he creates texture, color, and gestural marks to achieve his effects, but always with a destructive element. The paintings read as abstractions, and yet there is subtle figuration. In fact, it is only in the last two years that any figuration has been allowed to encroach at all. The results are richly layered paintings full of energy and expression.
Picture

Over the years, O’Leary’s artistic style has shifted dramatically from figurative, religious motifs to apocalyptic landscapes to his current artistic style of geometric abstractions. He also incorporates non-traditional materials like tar and string into his oil paintings adding a sense of depth, texture, and dimensionality. He has been painting and designing professionally since 1982. He is the former student and studio assistant to Roy Lichtenstein as well as the former studio assistant to Julian Schnabel.

O’Leary paints by his own rules. He is an independent artist with a powerful voice, and we are proud to be presenting this strong, cohesive body of work.
