Nuance: Nuanced

After the meeting ended the other night I was chatting with Jerome about last year's events and how much we all enjoyed participating in Nuance. Thank you Henry and Betsy for the great idea and the sweat equity in making it happen. The process was wonderful and the show gave us all a chance to see each others work and talk a bit about our art and our processes. For me, as a new member, it was a great experience in that I was really not too familiar with everyone's work.

I would like to propose the idea of Nuance become an annual event with a member performing essentially the same role as Henry in visiting with the members, talking about their work and curating a show each Spring. Each curator could name the show if that is recognized as a good idea by all. My vote would be to maintain the name Nuance as a tribute to Henry and his initiative and brilliant concept that addressed the concerns of those in the group who wanted more dialog about process and work in addition to the more "grand" collaborative efforts we undertake as well as the role it performs in introducing new members through our work...What do y'all think?
