PURCHASE BOOK | FEATURED ARTISTS
The Vermont Contemporary Art Annual is a publication of work by artists living and working in Vermont. In these pages, you will find images of artwork, artist statements and biographical information. In 2008, the first year of this publication, the annual showcases artists who were juried into the 22nd annual Art’s Alive Festival of Fine Art and as such, this book also serves as the catalog for the festival.
The jurors evaluated submissions for technical execution, conceptual quality, and critical value. The selection process was highly competitive. The jurors were Amy Rahn, the Gallery Coordinator at West Branch Gallery and Sculpture Park in Stowe; Carol MacDonald, professional artist, teacher, guide and community arts organizer; Liza Cowan, the owner and director of Pine Street Art Works in Burlington; and photographer Stephen Schaub, the co-owner of Indian Hill Imageworks in Pawlet.
The cover features Captain’s Log by festival artist Katie Loesel. She uses images of maps, pictorial abstractions, and navigational iconography to represent process and journey. Her work takes a variety of forms: prints, artist books, drawings, installations, and paintings. Captain’s Log is a 7-foot installation of monoprints and other works completed in 2007. Loesel lives in Essex, Vermont.
