Artist Talk: Brett Day Windham

Saturday, September 26 | 4 PM | Imago Gallery | Free

To mark the closing of Homage to Howard Windham at IMAGO, Howard’s daughter, Brett Day Windham, will discuss how her father influenced her work, the creative through-lines across four generations of her family, and her approach to being an artist, writer, and curator.

Join Imago Foundation for the Arts (IFA) in the gallery for an intimate artist talk marking the closing of IMAGO Gallery’s “Homage to Howard Windham,” an artist, teacher and long-time IFA exhibiting artist. The gallery is located at 36 Market Street in Warren, Rhode Island.

This intriguing discussion offers one more look at the depth and breadth of the legacy left by Howard Windham.

Imago welcomes three members of the Bristol Writers’ Group to a reading of their work on the theme of “community” followed by questions and answers and an open discussion.

This public reading is a continuation of a collaboration begun a year ago between the Bristol Writers’ Group and IFA to provide space in an art setting for local writers to read their work. The theme of community was chosen this year to coincide with art on display at IMAGO Gallery from October 1 to November 7 by featured IFA Exhibiting Artist Anne Marie Rossi entitled, “LIVING ARCHITECTURE: The Materiality of Community.”

WARREN WALKABOUTS

Sundays, October 18 & 25 | Haiku Poetry 12–2 PM

Drop by the gallery and write a haiku inspired by what you see, feel, or discover in the featured exhibition, "LIVING ARCHITECTURE: The Materiality of Community."

On October 18, poet and Imago community member Vivian Eyre will offer visitors a brief introduction to the art of haiku and help those who would like some guidance in creating their own. On October 25, community member Susan Rotblat-Walker will continue the project, inviting another afternoon of visitors to participate.

Choose a leaf cut from Japanese paper, add your haiku, and pin it to the hanging woven vine. As more visitors contribute, the vine will grow and become part of the installation itself: Your words become part of the installation. Your voice becomes part of the community.

In the case of rain on either afternoon, we will have music in the gallery from 3–5 PM.

Artist Talk: From Frescos to Fractals: an Encaustic Journey

By IFA Exhibiting Artist Dot Bergen | October 24 | IMAGO Gallery | 4 PM | FREE

All are welcome

In this presentation, Bergen takes us on her exploration of the restorative capacity of nature as she applies a new understanding of fractals to her own encaustic practice. Beginning with her work in encaustic and fresco, she sets the stage for her subsequent mixed-media investigation of edges, lines and illumination.

Her resulting new series of illuminated sculptures, entitled “Biolume: Between Host and Light” will be introduced. This new work will be featured in the Fine Furnishings Show at the Waterfire Arts Center in Providence on November 7th and 8th, 2026.
