SUMMARY:ON VIEW: Gallery Talks with Megan Hinton
DESCRIPTION:Register!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nON VIEW offers an opportunity for artists and art lovers to visit PAAM and engage in a group discussion about selected pieces on exhibition during the 2026 summer season. \n\n\n\nFacilitator Megan Hinton will lead an investigative inquiry into the form\, process\, and content of selected artworks. This in depth look will offer viewers surprise and expansion in relation to exhibited artworks. Sessions will also provide artist participants greater insight and influence for their own practice. A deeper visual study of an art work’s historic\, conceptual\, and technical vocabulary will broaden artistic dialogue. All are welcome and participants may enroll in one\, two\, or all three gallery talks scheduled over the course of the summer. See what’s on view here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMegan Hinton is a painter known for reconfiguring genres of landscape\, figurative\, and object painting. Her art utilizes painting’s historic content and technique with found and discarded material to investigate line\, color\, shape\, surface\, and scale. This fusion of content and material further defines Hinton as a collagist and sculptor with interdisciplinary practices in installation\, photography\, and printmaking. In 2024 PAAM honored Hinton with the prestigious annual Award for Artistic Excellence. Megan holds an MFA in Interdisciplinary arts from Mills College where she won the Hung Lui Painting Prize. She has received residency fellowships from Twenty Summers in Provincetown and The Frans Masereel Centrum in Belgium. She is a recipient of the Alice C. Cole ‘42 Merit Grant from Wellesley College. Megan is also an art educator\, curator\, and writer. She shows her work at Farm Projects Space in Wellfleet\, Massachusetts.

SUMMARY:Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture // Joe Fiorello and Edwina Rissland
DESCRIPTION:Curator Joe Fiorello will be joined by Edwina Rissland to discuss her late father’s exhibition\, Revisitations\, for this Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture.\n\n\n\nEdwin E. Rissland first came to Provincetown at the age of twenty-three to study painting at the summer school run by George Elmer Browne. He returned nearly every summer thereafter and\, over more than sixty years\, explored and painted scenes throughout the town and its surrounding landscape. In those early summers\, he came to know Provincetown intimately—from the harbor and tidal flats to the moors\, dunes\, and hills beyond Bradford Street. Certain places—the harbor\, Shank Painter Pond\, and the West End—became enduring subjects in his work. Some of these landscapes have since changed or disappeared\, while others remain much as they were. \n\n\n\nRissland worked in a wide range of media\, including oil\, watercolor\, and resist techniques\, and also practiced lithography\, sculpture\, and life figure drawing. Though he lived\, worked\, and studied primarily in the New Jersey–New York area\, his heart was firmly anchored in Provincetown\, his beloved and abiding source of inspiration. This exhibition explores a lifetime of painting a place that is always changing\, yet ever the same. \n\n\n\nIncluded with $15 Museum admission\, free for PAAM members. \n\n\n\nTHE FREDI SCHIFF LEVIN LECTURE SERIES\n\n\n\nThe Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture Series welcomes artists\, art historians\, curators\, and authors to speak at PAAM during the summer\, both in conjunction with exhibitions and as independent scholars. \n\n\n\nThe series was established in honor of artist Fredi Schiff Levin\, an active member of Provincetown’s arts community from the 1960s until her passing in 2002.

He will cover both his new book\, which is a companion to Josef Albers’s beautiful and canonical\, though sometimes opaque\, Interaction of Color\, first published in 1963\, and some of his own artwork\, which is deeply informed by working so closely with the work of Anni and Josef Albers.

The lecture will transition to his studio practice\, where he’ll share images of his Folded Cyanotypes and Folded Palladiums\, made by folding photo-sensitive paper\, as well as images of several new sculptures and videos in which he describes glacial valleys with a wide range of materials and processes. The lecture will conclude with images of what’s happening in his studio this summer. \n\n\n\nIncluded with $15 Museum admission\, free for PAAM members. \n\n\n\nTHE FREDI SCHIFF LEVIN LECTURE SERIES\n\n\n\nThe Fredi Schiff Levin Lecture Series welcomes artists\, art historians\, curators\, and authors to speak at PAAM during the summer\, both in conjunction with exhibitions and as independent scholars. \n\n\n\nThe series was established in honor of artist Fredi Schiff Levin\, an active member of Provincetown’s arts community from the 1960s until her passing in 2002.

Its cantilevered porch\, where friends and family would spend much of their time\, once had a clear view across three connected kettle ponds\, but saplings that dotted the hillside today tower above the house\, blockingsightlines. \n\n\n\nThe four-bedroom structure…is considered the most significant Modernist house on the Cape and was one of the first completed examples of Breuer’s “Long House” design\, a simple construction that could be assembled using local materials. It has been left unchanged for decades\, a time capsule of architectural history hidden in the wilderness…” \n\n\n\nRead more about the Breuer House and the Cape Cod Modern Trust here.

SUMMARY:Artists Teaching Artists: Blanche Lazzell\, An Educational Legacy // A Gallery Talk with Artist Lynn Stanley
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the exhibition Blanche Lazzell: Becoming an American Modernist\, organized by the Art Museum of West Virginia University and generously supported by Art Bridges. Included with $15 Museum admission\, free for PAAM members.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen the painter Blanche Lazzell called Provincetown home in 1918\, she rooted herself among a community of working artists who inspired and challenged each other.  \n\n\n\nProvincetown’s art colony had been established by trailblazing artist-teachers\, including the painter Charles Hawthorne\, who launched his summer school at the tip of Cape Cod in 1899.  Throughout her career\, Lazzell displayed a prescient ability to seek out and study with artists practicing within the modernist art movements of the early 20th century—including post impressionism\, cubism\, fauvism\, expressionism\, and abstraction.  As a teaching artist\, and through the example of her own work\, she has continued to inform and inspire generations of artists.   \n\n\n\nIn this lecture artist and educator Lynn Stanley will explore Lazzell’s work through the lens of these formative connections with artist-mentors and friends\, along with Lazzell’s legacy as an educator\, and her formidable influence as a master of the Provincetown Print. \n\n\n\nLynn Stanley is an artist\, educator\, and writer.  She received her BA from Smith College and her MFA in poetry from the University of Michigan. As a grant writer\, teaching artist\, and program developer she worked for two decades in non-profit arts administration\, including seventeen years with the Provincetown Art Association and Museum.  Stanley curated over sixty art exhibitions at PAAM\, with a focus on supporting the creativity of K-12 students and educators\, in collaboration with local artists and schools along Cape Cod. An award-winning educator and writer\, she’s applied her passion for arts education to generate exemplary programs for learners of all ages\, including professional development workshops and Visual Thinking Strategies training for K-12 teachers\, and the Art on the Edge\, Art Reach\, and Reaching Forward Mentor programs at PAAM. Stanley continues to be invested in arts education\, and the ways artists can support children\, teens\, and adults through the transformative power of human connection and creativity.  Examples of her work can be found at www.bisforbird.com \n\n\n\nImage: Blanche Lazzell (1878-1956)\, The White Petunia\, block cut 1932\, printed 1954\, color woodblock print\, 14 1/2 x 12 5/8 in.
