Exhibit: Beverly Hallam Chasing Light
Beverly Hallam: Chasing Light celebrates the visionary work of Beverly Hallam (1923–2013), a vital member of Ogunquit’s art community and a pioneering contemporary realist. Known for her innovative mastery across media, Hallam seamlessly integrated photography into her paintings and prints, shaping her luminous compositions. From coastal scenes to floral still lifes to digital abstractions, this exhibition explores Hallam’s lifelong use of photography in her pursuit to capture and express the elusive nature of light. Beverly Hallam: Chasing Light presents more than 30 prints, paintings and photographs drawn from the visual archives of Surf Point, York, Maine.
Please join the YPL Art Committee, Surf Point, and exhibit curator Kristina Durocher for an Opening Reception on Tuesday, May 13, from 5-7pm in the Library’s Upper Level.
