A Collaborative Exhibition: AJ Atwater and By&By Estate & Moving Sales
AJ Atwater’s studio, located in the historic 1886 Frank and Alison Crassweller home, has become a hub for artistic expression and estate sale enthusiasts alike. This two-floor house, listed on the Register of Historic Places, was once the residence of renowned author Sinclair Lewis. The Crassweller home, situated in Duluth’s Lakeside neighborhood, has seen its fair share of literary gatherings and cultural events. As a testament to its rich history, the home is now a space where art and estate sales converge, making it a unique destination for both locals and tourists. The exhibition, a collaboration between AJ Atwater and By&By Estate & Moving Sales, showcases the artist’s original works, priced to sell, in her studio and gallery. This debut sale features AJ’s New York City and Lake Superior abstract art pieces, which fill six prominent galleries within the house. The sections are carefully labeled to reflect each gallery theme, providing an immersive experience for viewers. • The galleries are divided into distinct areas, each featuring a unique collection of art pieces. • The works on display range from bold abstract compositions to delicate, intricate pieces. • Visitors can explore the entire house, taking in the artist’s inspiration from various locations.
A Personal Touch: AJ Atwater’s Creative Process
AJ Atwater’s artistic journey has been shaped by her travels and experiences on the East Coast and in the Midwest. The artist draws inspiration from the essence of the places around her, capturing the essence of West 57th Street, Lake Superior, and other locations. “What you’re doing, what I do with abstract art, is I portray the essence of what I see,” she says. “The essence of West 57th Street, the essence of Lake Superior. And that is what I’m putting down as I compose the painting.”
The artist emphasizes the importance of composition in her work, stating, “I think composition is the biggest thing. Because you look at the shoreline of Lake Superior, it’s just so massively interesting with the boulders, with the cliffs, and with the lake. Every day you have fog, or you have sun, or you have placid lake, or you have a stirred up lake, a restless lake in Manhattan. It’s full of people rushing, talking, deal making.”
This approach to composition allows AJ Atwater to capture the dynamic essence of her surroundings, translating it into unique and captivating abstract art pieces.
