Alison Rector: Silkscreen Season on a Maine Farm

Artist’s Reception: Wednesday, May 7, 5–7pm

Artist’s Talk: Saturday, May 10 at 2pm
with Alison Rector and Carl Little

Silkscreen Season on a Maine Farm is the first exhibition of Alison Rector’s entire collection of 43 silkscreens to date. She created this remarkable 35-year record of the back-to-the-land experience after she and her husband embraced the homesteading life when they moved to Maine in 1990.

The couple wanted, Rector says, “access to land and to grow things and have animals.” Over the next thirty years they embraced the homesteading life, raising sheep, cows and chickens, growing hay, and making apple cider and cheese. “We did a little of everything in a back-to-the-lander kind of way,” Rector recalled.

In 2014, Rector and her husband moved from the old farmhouse into a small energy-efficient “passive house” on an adjacent field. They began a cooperative farm ownership with young farmers to help facilitate a long-range plan for farm transition. This exhibition and the accompanying catalog with an essay by Carl Little place Rector’s silkscreens in context with Maine’s longstanding tradition of printmaking and document her remarkable record of a back-to-the-land experience in Maine. Catalog available.
