To reconsider a familiar winter scene through new eyes is a gift that keeps giving the longer you look, an experience currently on view at Carrie Haddad Gallery’s “Winter Nocturne” exhibit in Hudson. The group of contemporary painting, photography and sculpture opened with a lively reception on Saturday, Jan. 11, with several of the artists on site. There was the selection of minimalist birch tree landscapes by the late Frank Faulkner; Joe Wheaton’s unique sculptural designs welded from dark, oxidized brass or brilliant silver steel; monochromatic photographs of land, sky, snow and water by Betsy Weis; and Donald Bracken’s canvases with their sculptural aspects thanks to his mixing of natural materials (ashes and pigmented dirt among them) with acylics. The reception offered guests the opportunity to study winter nature — transformed — in the warmth of Haddad’s bright gallery space. “Winter Nocturne” runs through Sunday, Feb. 23.
