Special Art Sale: In Remembrance of Stuart Hamilton

Angels Gate Cultural Center sadly announced the passing of long-time studio artist Stuart Hamilton. The arts and cultural center said his wit and sense of humor is deeply missed.

Stuart’s family will be hosting a studio sale of artwork and supplies at 11 a.m. to 4 p.m, Nov. 26 and 27 at his Angels Gate Cultural Center studio in the back of Building B, the building adjacent to the galleries.    

     “We live in a world bombarded by an ever-increasing flood of visual stimuli. With such an overwhelming quantity of images, I feel there is a serious risk of developing an insensitivity to the simple objects that surround us. I see my artwork as a retreat to a more contemplative place, and have chosen to focus on the beauty of the small and unspectacular from the world around me. Many of the sticks and stones depicted relate to specific times or locations, and are part of my personal history.”  — Stuart Hamilton
