Wood

The Amee Farm's 4,000 square feet of flexible and versatile event space was transformed into an Art Gallery on October 18, 2008, featuring works by the Amee Farm's resident artist, Barre Pinske. Pinske's pieces includes furniture pieces, chainsaw bear carvings, beautiful twig and resin chairs, bowls and silkscreen Vermont print images that were inspired by Warhol. The Art Gallery enhances a visitor's stay and also allows them the opportunity to purchase the art if they choose.

Barre Pinske "My art work has attracted much media attention over my twenty plus year career. I have been featured on CNN Headline News three times, been in the Wall Street Journal, USA Today weekend, the Boston Globe, the Boston Herald, Cape Cod Times, New Bedford Standard times, the Providence Journal and hundreds local papers over the course of my career. Much media exposure has come from winning national chain saw carving competitions including The Chain Saw Carving World Championships at age 24. From my start as a chainsaw carver my work has evolved to include many forms of sculpture, painting and funky furniture. I think my most significant art placement is the two wood carvings in Votkinsk Russia. They were a gift to the Russians from the Pentagon of a carved bear and eagle symbolizing the two nations during singing of the nuclear disarmament treaties."
