Join the Berkshire Botanical Garden in visiting Ann Getsinger’s studio in New Marlborough, Mass., and witness the magic of her painting as she combines Realism and Surrealism to create a captivating effect of a painting within a painting. Ann Getsinger’s exhibit, "The Garden of Curiosity," is on view at the Leonhardt Gallery through Nov. 19, and this studio visit will provide an intimate setting to explore the artist’s centrally placed, life-size subjects — bones, insects, plants, seashells, fruit, leaves, and orange peels, accurately detailed, non-stylized — often set against, or integrated with, dreamlike and sometimes disjoined landscapes. Enjoy the exhibit at Berkshire Botanical Garden, and then meet the artist where she works to learn more about her process in the studio and beyond on Oct. 13, 10 a.m. to noon.
