Reception and Gallery Talk
Friday, March 1, 6 - 7:30
The Lotvin Family Gallery proudly presents Generations, the first joint exhibition of Linda Hoffman and Ariel Matisse, who are mother and daughter, and the largest presentation to date of Matisse’s work.
Hoffman, who trained in studio art at Bryn Mawr and in Noh Theater in Kyoto, Japan, now operates, with her husband Blase Provitola, Old Frog Pond Farm in Harvard, Massachusetts, an organic farm, arts incubator, and events center.
Her sculpture has been regularly exhibited throughout New England since the 1980s and collected by universities and public spaces nationally.
Hoffman, now 62, was married years ago to the sculptor Paul Matisse (son of the art dealer Pierre Matisse and grandson of the artist Henri Matisse).
The youngest of Linda and Paul’s three children is Ariel Matisse, 29.
Self-taught, Ariel Matisse was, as she says, “always surrounded by art growing up.” She pursued other directions until just over two years ago when, helping her mother prepare a piece by joining together apple branches with copper wire, her attention went to the wire, which is now the central element of her work.
She is now lead welder at the Artisan's Asylum in Somerville, MA.
You can view more of her work on her website.
