Paintings by Cambridge artist Beth Walsh are now being shown in the Karen Aqua Gallery at CCTV. A closing reception will be held Monday, June 24th from 6:30-8:30PM.
"My art is about exploring and experiencing what I feel while I make a painting, to allow the work to be driven as much as possible by what I feel. Paying minimal attention to my thinking and instead holding my attention on my responses to what I work on generates more creative energies. that are like very brief air currents or flashes of light. Witnessing and responding to them I can capture and express them in paint and other media.
"Without asking that you see anything in particular I hope that you will appreciate the presence of the work itself and maybe reflect on your own ephemeral energies."

As part of CCTV's year-long 25th Anniversary celebration, and through the generosity of Forest City Enterprises and Cambridge Savings Bank, we have installed a billboard at 334 Massachusetts Avenue in Central Square. It was designed by Alex Gerasev, tag line by Carla Gubernick of World of Mouth Media.
This is not CCTV's first billboard. In 1993, in celebration of the 5th Anniversary, a billboard designed by Myrna Kustin was installed in Kendall Square. Also that year, CCTV welcomed into the studio Karen Finley, shown here keyed over the billboard. Finley is a performance artist, and one of the NEA Four.
CCTV is currently offering FREE Access Membership to Cambridge residents, through MAy 25. You can learn more about upcoming 25th Anniversary events here.

CCTV member Ann Cowan is displaying her photographs from Ecuador at CCTV’s Karen Aqua Gallery through May 24, 2013. The public is invited to a reception April 28th from 4:30-6:30PM.
Cowan says, “I went to Highland Ecuador last summer to get as close to the native people as possible. I found an amazing indigenous market in Otovalo, and a farming village nearby. Thousands of local farmers and artisans come to the Saturday market, the largest in the Americas, which fills the Plaza de Panchos, the central square, and spreads down all the surrounding side streets and across the river. The vendors set up before dawn and stay until late afternoon or evening. It’s a social event for most and an attraction for tourists, bringing a relatively high standard of living to these welcoming people.
“In these pictures I tried to capture a sense of the people and place without disturbing them, as the camera allowed a glimpse of life among some of the descendants of the once mighty Incas and their subjects in the Andes mountains of South America.”
