Third Annual Life In The Abstract Exhibit Begins Friday

The third annual Life in the Abstract an ensemble exhibit of three abstract painters whose work will be on display at ILLE Arts on 216 Main St. in Amagansett from Friday, Oct. 31 to Monday, Nov. 10.

Artists include John Haubrich, Barbara Groot and Dru Frederick. A reception will be held on Saturday, Nov. 1, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Barbara Groot, artist and curator of the Third Annual Life in the Abstract, has assembled artists whose interpretation of abstract art both compliment and provoke conversation about the nature of the art form. Unique to Life in the Abstract, all three artists have strong design backgrounds.

Groot enjoyed a long career as a Textile Designer. Haubrich is an Art Director and Frederick works in art restoration and conservation. Elements of mass, geometry, line, color and balance are clearly informed by each artist’s design disciplines. As an ensemble exhibit, the personal interpretation by each is greatly enhanced by the commonality of the group.
