As the record comes to an end 

you sit in silence for a moment 

before standing up 

to flip it over

As remote as we sometimes feel, nothing stands alone. The historical narratives of Maine art are ever present, intertwining daily with our contemporary world. Our context for works previously known shifts with each new entry. This place provides an environment for rugged individualism alongside intense community. These works are examples from artists who have and are working deliberately, taking in what has come before them and presenting us with new vantage points of scenes we thought we already knew.
