Are you sick ofyour world?Tiredof being confined by walls, by eternal classrooms, and by the tight suburbia of Somerville? Do you feel the need to escape, be it only for a brief afternoon, and widen your field of view a little? Then perhaps, my friends, the DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park can bring you solace. Outside, its broad, green lawns invite your eye and mind to wander across the fields dotted with huge modernist sculptures. Inside, a new exhibit on the paintings of Scott Prior give you a window into another world, a peaceful world, that glows with contentment and familial harmony.

Inside the DeCordova The paintings of Scott Prior, assembled here in his first major collection,are described as intimate family portraits; realistic and meticulous glimpses of his intensely personal world. The exhibit is titled Light on the Familiar: The Paintings of Scott Prior, and is world. You can feel how much asubtle, understated show.

The G reat Ou tdoors The DeCordova Sculpture Park is pure joy. The estate is over 30 acres and huge, colorful sculptures are scattered liberally throughout. A quick walk through the park is always avoyage of discovery, as you come upon art unexpectedly, maybe camouflaged among a hillside of boulders, or hanging above you in a clump of pine trees. Many of the pieces were created specifically for the DeCordova grounds. Often you can feel the exuberance of the artists; presumably there are not many venues that have space for these unwieldy works. Many of the artists play with the effect of having their works presented in a natural setting, and have a beautiful landscape as a backdrop instead of stark, white gallery walls. Some begin to blur the line between the art and the setting, incorporating nature andtryingtoexpandthe definitionofart. One piece,“Sentry Stand,”decksoutthe trunks ofsix pine trees in green mesh dresses. Andwhat looks from afar like aperfectly normal boulder alongside a dead sapling turns out to be a hammered aluminum reproduction, in apiece titled “Environmental Impact.” After a little while oftrying to figure out which rock is real and which is art, you’ll probably stop caring, and may find yourself admiring the graceful lines of a weeping beech tree which no artist’s hand has ever touched. Other sculptors chose to play up the contrast between the setting and the art while using the natural background to set off their industrial forms. A prime example is “Sunflowers for Vincent,” an enormous contraption of bright yellow and steel which celebrates the energy and power of our industrial age. Many pieces also use burnished metal or mirrored surfaces to play with the relation- ship between the work and its context. By drawing the image of the surroundings and the viewers into the art, ideas of space and permanence are manipulated. In “#############”solid granite rocks hunker close to the ground and promise to remain just so, unchanging for centuries. The rocks, however, are backed by mirrors which reflect the constantly changing environment, reminding us that nothing is solid, all is subjective, and everything is always in flux. There is plenty to discover, play with, and ponder in the Sculpture Park. Its beautiful location on Flint’s Pond gives it an added attraction. Go now, before the winter is upon us. Bring a picnic lunch and your camera, and allow yourself to be delighted.

To get to the DeCordova: take Route 2 West to 95 South, then take exit 28, where you’ll see a sign for the museum. Go two miles down the road to Lincoln center, at the intersection continue straight onto Sandy Pond Road. The museum is located at 51 Sandy Pond Road, it will be on your right.

Scott Prior’s Nancy and Ezra in the Kitchen ..~- - a hand that paints exactly what it sees, and of a mind that says, “yes, and keep it that way.” But there is avibrancy and emotional charge that is rarely found in paintings with such aphotographic realism. Where is it, you wonder, that Prior injects this emotion into such mundane scenes? Although he paints in a very objective style, he somehow makes it his own. Prior’s first realistic works include views of a deserted diner, an empty room, and a quiet house by the shore. All deal with solitary spaces, yet are filled with a deep sense of presence, that of Prior and his compassionate eye. It is given the form of a soft light that infuses the paintings. The exquisite lighting is always the first thing you notice in Prior’s paintings. It is a lightthat caresses each form, makes colors glow richly, and givss shadows an unexpected weight. Prior uses the opportunities of color and shadow to create warmth in his paintings. Each object seems to shine from within and taken together the objects express grace, harmony, and contentment. In the late 1980s Prior turned his eye to figure painting and began to include the members ofhis family in his scenes. His view widened immediately, for while he gives people the same luminosity he gives objects, he quickly realized the broader scope of emotion possible with the inclusion ofcharacters. His wife makes many appearancesand as his three children are born, so do they. Prior’s treatment of human figures brings to the forefront allusions to the Northern Renaissance painters, whom he greatly admires. His figures take stately, symmetrical poses and gaze directly out at you from the canvas. They are the contemporary The Sculpture Garden at the DeCordova: equivalent of the saints in Renaissance altarpieces. One of his most striking pieces is a great place to relax, but no playing on the art. THETUFTS DAILY October 7,1999 WEEKENDER

Many of the actors have been associated with the show for over ten years, including Pat Shea and Nick Rosetti. They are all comfortable with the material and have no qualms about improvising funny jokes on the spot. Pat Shea is hands-down the funniest and most loveable character in the show. The audience absolutely loved him and his end- less stream ofjokes. Perhaps that is one of the reasons they had such difficulty voting for him as the murder suspect in the perfor- mance I saw. Another wonderful thing that Shea did was interact with the audience members during the intermission. Perhaps this was a plot device on his part to clear himself of guilt! Shear Madness is a show that you can see over and over again because it will be different each time. It is definitely one of Boston’s hidden treasures and a must-see for those who love to both laugh and be a detective. It’s a guaranteed good time.
