SUMMARY:Vernon Rickman Book
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe life and work of Newton-born artist Vernon Rickman is highlighted in “Vernon Rickman\, An Artful Life\,“ a book by Beverley Olson Buller. \nCarriage Factory Art Gallery published the book\, which was released in mid-February 2019. \nRickman was born in Newton in 1929\, the second son of Theodore J. and Mattie Jordan Rickman. While attending Newton High School\, art teacher Marie Orr encouraged and mentored him. After his high school graduation\, he studied art in Kansas City\, Missouri\, and Cleveland\, Ohio\, before serving in the Korean War. He later graduated from the University of Kansas with a bachelor’s degree in fine arts. \nRickman went on to join the Smithsonian and spent 20 years as a sculptor and artist there\, creating many of the exhibits for the Museum of Natural History. His work depicted humans during different eras of history and geography. He retired from the Smithsonian in the 1980s. \nAfter retirement\, Rickman continued painting and sculpting\, creating more than 300 oil paintings as well as sculptures and reliefs. Much of his work expresses the depth of suffering and human bondage. Longing and sorrow\, isolation and darkness\, the journey inward and outward are central themes of his art. \nRickman died in Newton on Dec. 27\, 2013. Carriage Factory Art Gallery is the sole sales broker for his paintings. \nThe Carriage Factory Art Gallery is open from noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday\, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. For more information\, call 316-284-2749 or visit www.carriagefactoryartgallery.com.

SUMMARY:October Third Thursday: Women Wonderworkers
DESCRIPTION:Carriage Factory Art Gallery will host “Women Wonderworkers: The Self-Made Worlds of Visionary Female Artists\,” a presentation and discussion by Erika Nelson at 6 p.m. Oct. 17 at 128 E. Sixth St. in Newton. \n  \nMembers of the community are invited to attend the free program to learn about visionary art environments created by female sculptors. \n  \nInez Marshal\, a truck driver and preacher\, sculpted large blocks of limestone and established the International Sculpture Hall in rural Portis\, Kansas. Other stories include Grandma Prisbery’s bottle village\, located in an earthquake-prone area of California. This presentation examines the artists’ motivations\, the work itself\, and the afterlife of overlooked sites after their makers have passed. \n  \nErika Nelson is an independent artist\, educator and director of the World’s Largest Things\, Inc. Her research interests include roadside attractions and outsider art environments. She explores the back roads of the United States in search of the odd and unique in her mobile museum\, the World’s Largest Collection of the World’s Smallest Versions of the World’s Largest Things. \n  \n“The artist’s job is not just to document an era\, but to interpret\, to convey ideas\, elicit emotions\,” Nelson said. “When artists have deeply emotional responses to the world around them\, some feel compelled to use their art to not just express their own experience\, their own view\, but to spur viewers to action.” \n  \n“Women Wonderworkers: The Self-Made Worlds of Visionary Female Artists” is part of Humanities Kansas’s Movement of Ideas Speakers Bureau\, featuring presentations and workshops designed to share stories that inspire\, spark conversations that inform and generate insights that strengthen civic engagement. \n  \nContact Carriage Factory Art Gallery at 316-284-2749 or visit www.carriagefactoryartgallery.com for more information about this program and other upcoming events. \n
