Maine Sunday Telegram features Art Gallery's show, 'Lullaby for Maine'

The Maine Sunday Telegram on April 22, 2012 published a feature story on the UNE Art Gallery's current exhibition "Rebecca Goodale, Lullaby for Maine."

Goodale, a Freeport artist, draws attention to Maine's endangered species through her artist books on display.

Bob Keyes of the Telegram writes: "The exhibition, aptly titled "Lullaby for Maine," features Goodale's handmade renderings of threatened and endangered insects, plants and animals. The exhibition is layered and detailed, and beautiful in brilliant ways. Despite the somber message imparted by the artist -- these natural things are vanishing at an alarming pace -- Goodale's artist's books pop with color and emote comfort."

The Telegram story includes a short video on Goodale's work. The exhibition is on display through June 16th.
