CANNON BEACH — Sculptor M.J. Anderson will be joined by fine art photographer Claudia Toutain-Dorbec in “Flowers & Stone,” a dynamic two-woman art show at the Cannon Beach Gallery.
“Flowers & Stone” will run from Oct. 3 to Nov. 2. There will be an artist reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 4.
Toutain-Dorbec will show large-scale color photographs taken during her residency at Claude Monet’s Garden over a five-month period in 2009. This will be the first time that the work has been shown in Oregon.
Anderson is a well-known Oregon sculptor who works in marble to create both figurative and abstract sculpture. Anderson has spent a portion of each year for the last 25 years working in a studio above Carrara, Italy. She finds marble, roughs out sculptures and completes larger commissions, which are later shipped back to the United States.
The Cannon Beach Gallery is located at 1064 S. Hemlock St.
