Charles Clough’s
Westerly
Art
Project
Charles Clough’s Westerly Art Project is a new way to make paintings which takes place in
Westerly, Rhode Island. It is distinguished by the participation of others in
the creation of the painting and the casting of Clough as the "un-painter".
Individuals and small groups paint on a single prepared board of 33 x 44
inches. After each session the complete painting is photographed along with as
many well-composed, cropped, details that the painting offers. Clough then
selectively grinds and polishes the painting to prepare it for the next
session. This step also is extensively photographed such that at the conclusion
of the painting over a thousand images are produced for a print portfolio. Here
are books that document the WesterlyArtProjectSummer2008.pdf and WesterlyArtProjectFall2008.pdf.
Participation is encouraged for the Winter 2009 Painting. Prints of your
completed painting and you or your group, and when the season’s painting is completed, the book, will be available. Sessions may be scheduled
for Wednesday and Friday evenings and anytime on Sunday through mid-March are
available. Call 401-596-0208 or email: charlie@clufff.com
