Catharine Clark Gallery

Frommer's Review (Please add to the review)

http://travel.nytimes.com

Catharine Clark's is a different kind of gallery experience. Although many galleries focus on established artists and out-of-this-world prices, Catharine's exhibits works by up-and-coming contemporary as well as established artists (mainly from California). It nurtures beginning collectors by offering a purchasing plan that's almost unheard of in the art business. You can buy a piece on layaway and take up to a year to pay for it -- interest free! Prices here make art a realistic purchase for almost everyone for a change, but serious collectors also frequent the shows because Clark has such a keen eye for talent. Shows change every 6 weeks. Open Tuesday through Friday 10:30am to 5:30pm and Saturday 11am to 5:30pm. Closed Sunday and Monday.

Honesty at Last

The Wadsworth’s Amistad Center gets maniacal about Lincoln

By Alan Bisbort

Lincoln: Man, Myth and Memory
Through April 26, Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art,
600 Main St., Hartford

“An evocative untitled installation by Travis Somerville depicts a ball and chain clamped around the neck of a plaster bust of Lincoln. This is paired with Somerville’s oil painting, “Smokey Joe on my Mind,” an image guaranteed to ruffle a few feathers. Lincoln in blackface (like Al Jolson) with a racially insensitive old-time cartoon character emerging from his forehead.”
