Two Faculty Members Receive Glowing Reviews!

As you know, all of the faculty and staff at Montserrat College of Art are active in the art world and are recognized locally, nationally and internationally. That being said we are proud that not one, but TWO of our current faculty were granted very favorable reviews in the most recent issue of the regionally distributed art periodical Art New England.

Thorpe Feidt displayed paintings at Montserrat’s very own 301 Gallery. Thorpe has been exhibiting his work throughout the Northeast since the early 1960s, with solo exhibitions in New York City, Philadelphia, Boston, Gloucester, Beverly, Portsmouth and other cities, he has been on the Montserrat College of Art Faculty since 1973. Check out Thorpe’s full bio at www.montserrat.edu and feel free to send him a congratulatory email!


Doug Bell, Pretty Sweet Stack: Clock Tick, 2005, mixed-media assemblage, approximately 10 x 7 x 7 feet


Doug Bell recently had a solo show at HallSpace in Dorcester, MA, a gallery directed by the chair of our Graphic Design program, John Colan. He has exhibited widely and his work is collected and represented in many private and public collections including The Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, The Rose Art Museum at Brandeis University, The Fuller Museum of Art, The DeCordova Museum and many more. Check out Doug’s full bio at www.montserrat.edu and again, feel free to email him your congratulations!


Both of these shining reviews reiterate what we believe to be one of the greatest resources available to the Montserrat community, the success’ and accolades of our amazing faculty, and the ability to learn from them!
