Still Rivers: The Altered Book Art of Chris Perry

Brookfield Craft Center presents Still Rivers: The Altered Book Art of Chris Perry opening June 11, 2022 and running through July 17, 2022 in its Lynn Tendler Bignell Gallery. Perry is a resident of Ridgefield and a member of the Ridgefield Guild of Artists. There will be a reception to meet the artist and view the work on June 25th from 5-8 PM.

Perry alters unwanted books to impart information without the use of words or images; the books themselves are the idea, the shape of the paper the information. The focus is always on water in its many forms and effects on other things.

“This focus on water and its power makes this a wonderful show to have during our 70th anniversary year as our gallery is located in an old mill building on the banks of the Still River,” says Howard Lasser, Brookfield Craft Center’s Executive Director.

The show is sponsored by Mitchell Energy Products & Services.

Gallery hours are Tuesday – Friday noon -5:00pm, Saturday 11:00am – 5:00pm, and Sunday noon – 4:00pm.
