Somers Artist In Juried Exhibit

Tom Musante of Somers is among eight artists selected to have their work on display in the Attleboro Arts Museum in Massachusetts. The 8 Visions exhibit is a juried member exhibit that opened on August 20th and continues until October 1st.

Musante who has lived in Somers for 18 years is a fine art photographer. A hiker and kayaker, most of works are of the outdoors as he tries to capture “compelling images in both ordinary and extraordinary places”. His images include landscapes of the Croton Reservoir and macros of his wife’s, Julie, garden in Somers. Galleries of his work -- from Boston to Utah, from grave markers to door knockers -- are at his website, www.tommusante.com.

Artists selected for the 8 Visions exhibition pass through a two-phased jury process. Mim Fawcett, Executive Director of the Attleboro Arts Museum said, “The artists chosen for this year’s 8 Visions exhibition are all exceptional talents with clear creative voices." Along with Musante’s photographs, other mediums on display at the exhibit include stoneware, acrylics and oils. Read the news story about the exhibit in the Attleboro Sun Chronicle here.
