An exhibit of former Distillery artists
curated by former Distillery Gallery director, Scott Chasse
March 5 - April 7, 2014
public reception on Saturday, March 15, 7-9pm
The Departed, at The Distillery Gallery
The Distillery has been home to artists seeking raw space to create and be inspired in since 1984. Over the span of thirty years, the building has evolved to become the staple of the Boston arts scene it is today. Hundreds of artists have come and gone as full time residents or part time studio renters, each contributing the vibrance and diversity of the art community that is The Distillery.
Scott Chasse is an artist & curator based in Brooklyn, NY. He was the director of Distillery Gallery from 2007-2013 and has moved on to run his own gallery, Calico, in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Chasse held studio space at The Distillery from 2001-2010.
“The Departed” features a selection of artists from Scott's term at The Distillery who have, moved on to continue creating elsewhere. The range in artwork and career paths amongst this group is wide, and this is a mere fraction of the long list of names that once called this former rum distillery “home”.
