The opening reception will be held on Wednesday, July 17 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Franklin Square Salon Gallery at Hanover Theatre.
The exhibition will be on display through October 29, 2019.
The Exhibition
Schwartz concentrates on movement and shifting objects, while Kaphammer directs his attention to vehicles in a state of rest--these two artists deliver dynamic work in paint and pastel.
Schwartz gets inspiration from the motion of vehicles and the distortions that may occur through unusual lenses. She focuses on urban and highway landscapes, often through partially obscured views that blur and contort the realities outside.
Kaphammer is fascinated by just the opposite and looks to what happens when this motion stops, as these vehicles linger amongst a landscape. With dramatic light and shadowing, he explores a multitude of vehicles, some left in a state of decay.

Schwartz received her Bachelor of Art Education from the Ohio State University and her Masters of Education in Instructional Media from Boston State College.
Kaphammer began his formal art education at the Worcester Art Museum and studied under numerous artists. In addition to ArtsWorcester, both are Copley Society of Art members.
Schwartz and Kaphammer have taught and exhibited work together and independently throughout New England.
