Norwalk exhibit, ‘Migrating Colors,’ offers a promise of spring

The City of Norwalk Parking Authority’s Maritime Garage Gallery’s latest exhibit features art that brings a bit of spring to winter, through color.

“Migrating Colors” runs Tuesday, Feb. 19, with an opening reception at 5 p.m., through Friday, May 10.

“The selection of the pieces for ‘Migrating Colors’ produces an intriguing juxtaposition between the artworks, which at the same time creates a dialogue that flows through color,” curator Nadia Martinez was quoted as saying in a news release. “The range of artworks in the exhibition goes from vibrant and brilliant colors that create a movement almost like explosions, to others that are evoking stillness and peace.”

“Migrating Colors” exhibiting artists include Jay Petrow and Nancy Breakstone, both of Westport; Kirstan Holtan, of Stamford; Tara Kovach, of Wilton; Amy L. Kaplan, of Fairfield, Elizabeth Katz, of　Easton; and Tim Nighswander, Hamden.

The Maritime Garage Gallery is part of the Parking Authority’s “Art in Parking Places” placemaking initiative, an effort to support art in parking spaces.

Maritime Garage Gallery, 11 N. Water Street, Norwalk. Mondays-Fridays 9 a.m.-5 p.m. 203- 831-9063.
