Putney Library hosts watercolor exhibit

PUTNEY — “The Moment After,” a series of recent landscape watercolors by Finn Campman, is on exhibit at the Putney Public Library through Saturday, Feb. 25, 2023.

The exhibit shows Campman's detailed, intimate, and luminous watercolors of landscapes in Putney and surrounding areas.

“There are certain cherished moments when I am offered the possibility of simply letting the world 'settle,' on my senses,” Campman said in a news release. “Discernment is unnecessary, for only in the state of simple openness can this 'settling' manifest. The moment is complete.”

Campman has been a puppeteer, photographer, and watercolorist and has been a teacher at Hilltop Montessori School in Brattleboro for 21 years. He attended The Putney School and Sarah Lawrence College.

In 1991, he joined Sandglass Theater in Putney where he founded Company of Strangers. He was an artist in residence for four years at The Hall Farm Center for Arts and Education in Reading, Vermont.

Most recently he has been focusing on painting and electronic music with his band Brothers Chorizo. Finn lives in Westminster West with his wife, children, one cat, and a free-ranging parakeet. He can be reached at [email protected].
