Heather Gaudio Fine Art is pleased to present Formal Approaches, featuring works by Hyun Jung Ahn, Mojé Assefjah, Mio Yamato and Nadia Yaron. The exhibition will be on view October 4 – November 15.
The artists in the show share varied yet distinct formal approaches to their creative process. Through abstraction, they explore themes around emotional and psychological spaces and how natural elements shape our physical worlds and surroundings.
About the Artists:
Hyun Jung Ahn presents her ongoing investigations into memory, psychological interiorities, and the interpretation of emotional states of being. Offering an interplay between color and form, her paintings create a balanced composition made with different pieces of linen or canvas that are painted and stitched together. An artist-in-residency program at MASS MoCA in 2018 led Ahn to discover a new way to make a mark and create a line by using a sewing machine. Since then, the sewn thread has become integral to her work, offering Ahn a way to explore chance and geometric abstraction by dividing, fragmenting and joining different shapes on the picture plane. Coupled with a thoughtfully colored palette or more muted, monochromatic tones, Ahn’s paintings are eloquent modernist abstractions. Ahn has exhibited widely in the United States and in Korea, where she also teaches. Her works are represented in many private and corporate collections including TD Bank Corporation Art Collection, Toronto.
Mojé Assefjah was born in Tehran and moved to Germany with her family in 1986 where she attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. She later did artist-in-residency programs in Rome and Spain. This is the first time the artist exhibits in the United States and the exhibition is made possible with the collaboration of Galerie Tanit in Munich. Working with traditional egg tempera, Assefjah paints vividly chromatic works that are heavily influenced by the Italian Old Masters, miniature Persian paintings and calligraphy. Referencing still life and landscape genres, the artist’s luminous, jeweled toned paintings are tableaus into alternate spaces, distant landscapes or dream-like visions into what lies beyond a doorway or window. Assefjah updates these depictions to our current times by straddling representation and abstraction. The artist has participated in various solo and group exhibitions in Europe and the Near East and her paintings are in notable private and public collections including Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich; Gabriele Münter and Johannes Eichner Foundation, Munich; Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich; Guangdon Art Museum, China; Colección olorVISUAL, Barcelona; KICO Sammlung, Allianz Versicherungen, Münchner Rück, Munich; and BIZ, Bank für Internationale Zahlungsausgleich, Basel.
Mio Yamato takes on a near ritualistic approach to her accumulation of dotted and linear gestures, creating densely layered imagery. With her signature marks, Yamato’s paintings evoke organic phenomena, geological terrains and other patterns seen in natural formations. Her works explore notions of universality, systems and ever-changing continuums that occur on the micro and macro scale. Whether using the dot or line as a mark, the artist shifts the direction and patterns as she works allowing for chance to take over her process. Yamato is also known for creating monumental site-specific mural installations, such as Under My Skin at the Kyoto City Kyocera Museum. The artist hails from Kyoto and has exhibited widely in Asia in group and solo exhibitions. She has also been the recipient of numerous awards including an artist residency program at Fundación Casa Wabi in Oaxaca, Mexico. This is the third time HGFA features Yamato in an exhibition in the United States, thanks to the collaboration with COHJU Contemporary in Kyoto.
Nadia Yaron takes a unique approach to represent and experience the landscape as a genre. Drawing inspiration from the vast vistas provided by landscapes, Yaron reduces the bands of sky, tiers of land in the distance and closer topographies in the foreground into columnar sculptures. The artist carves and sands different types of stone, such as alabaster, marble and other locally sourced stone, and salvaged wood. She shapes each piece finishing them in varying textures, all the while following their natural veins and grains and working around their natural characteristics. Once each piece is finished, Yaron stacks the pieces together into a singular column, simplifying the visual layers of a landscape, bringing the boundless spaces and terrains to a human scale. Through these vertical structures, the Brazilian-born American artist references impermanence and our relationship with nature. Yaron has had many solo and group exhibitions in the United States, and her sculptures are highly sought after by collectors here and abroad.

Story Barn: “This Old House”
After the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869, a trip from coast-to-coast that used to take months was shortened to just under a week, allowing for the transport of goods and ideas across the continent in ways previously inconceivable. Profit-seeking corporations and the American government financed it, but the people who actually built it and who were most affected by it are the focus of this program of music – Indigenous and African Americans as well as Irish, Chinese, Japanese, and other immigrant laborers whose contributions have been largely erased from history. Silkroad’s American Railroad seeks to right these past wrongs by highlighting untold stories and amplifying unheard voices from these communities, painting a more accurate picture of the global diasporic origin of the American empire.
The American Railroad tour program includes commissioned pieces by jazz artist Cécile McLorin Salvant and film composer Michael Abels, as well as Silkroad artist and renowned pipa player Wu Man and Silkroad artist Layale Chaker. It also includes re-envisioned arrangements of folk songs by Silkroad artistic director, Rhiannon Giddens, and fellow Silkroad artists Haruka Fujii and Maeve Gilchrist.
Funded in part by the New England States Touring program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts Regional Touring Program and the six New England state arts agencies.

Music Theatre of Connecticut (MTC) MainStage, Fairfield County’s award-winning professional theatre company, continues their 39th season with the wild and hilarious comedy, Ken Ludwig’s The Fox on the Fairway. Set on the manicured greens of an elite golf club, this farce is full of outrageous antics, romantic entanglements, and uproarious misunderstandings. The production runs from November 7th through the 23rd with performances on Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm & 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm.
A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox on the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp pulling the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life and man's eternal love affair with... golf.

Heather Gaudio Fine Art is pleased to present Formal Approaches, featuring works by Hyun Jung Ahn, Mojé Assefjah, Mio Yamato and Nadia Yaron. The exhibition will be on view October 4 – November 15.
The artists in the show share varied yet distinct formal approaches to their creative process. Through abstraction, they explore themes around emotional and psychological spaces and how natural elements shape our physical worlds and surroundings.
About the Artists:
Hyun Jung Ahn presents her ongoing investigations into memory, psychological interiorities, and the interpretation of emotional states of being. Offering an interplay between color and form, her paintings create a balanced composition made with different pieces of linen or canvas that are painted and stitched together. An artist-in-residency program at MASS MoCA in 2018 led Ahn to discover a new way to make a mark and create a line by using a sewing machine.

Coupled with a thoughtfully colored palette or more muted, monochromatic tones, Ahn’s paintings are eloquent modernist abstractions. Ahn has exhibited widely in the United States and in Korea, where she also teaches. Her works are represented in many private and corporate collections including TD Bank Corporation Art Collection, Toronto.
Mojé Assefjah was born in Tehran and moved to Germany with her family in 1986 where she attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. She later did artist-in-residency programs in Rome and Spain. This is the first time the artist exhibits in the United States and the exhibition is made possible with the collaboration of Galerie Tanit in Munich.

Music Theatre of Connecticut (MTC) MainStage, Fairfield County’s award-winning professional theatre company, continues their 39th season with the wild and hilarious comedy, Ken Ludwig’s The Fox on the Fairway. Set on the manicured greens of an elite golf club, this farce is full of outrageous antics, romantic entanglements, and uproarious misunderstandings. The production runs from November 7th through the 23rd with performances on Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm & 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm.
A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox on the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp pulling the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life and man's eternal love affair with... golf.
The Fox on the Fairway

Heather Gaudio Fine Art is pleased to present Formal Approaches, featuring works by Hyun Jung Ahn, Mojé Assefjah, Mio Yamato and Nadia Yaron. The exhibition will be on view October 4 – November 15.
The artists in the show share varied yet distinct formal approaches to their creative process. Through abstraction, they explore themes around emotional and psychological spaces and how natural elements shape our physical worlds and surroundings.
About the Artists:
Hyun Jung Ahn presents her ongoing investigations into memory, psychological interiorities, and the interpretation of emotional states of being. Offering an interplay between color and form, her paintings create a balanced composition made with different pieces of linen or canvas that are painted and stitched together. An artist-in-residency program at MASS MoCA in 2018 led Ahn to discover a new way to make a mark and create a line by using a sewing machine. Since then, the sewn thread has become integral to her work, offering Ahn a way to explore chance and geometric abstraction by dividing, fragmenting and joining different shapes on the picture plane. Coupled with a thoughtfully colored palette or more muted, monochromatic tones, Ahn’s paintings are eloquent modernist abstractions. Ahn has exhibited widely in the United States and in Korea, where she also teaches. Her works are represented in many private and corporate collections including TD Bank Corporation Art Collection, Toronto.
Mojé Assefjah was born in Tehran and moved to Germany with her family in 1986 where she attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. She later did artist-in-residency programs in Rome and Spain. This is the first time the artist exhibits in the United States and the exhibition is made possible with the collaboration of Galerie Tanit in Munich. Working with traditional egg tempera, Assefjah paints vividly chromatic works that are heavily influenced by the Italian Old Masters, miniature Persian paintings and calligraphy. Referencing still life and landscape genres, the artist’s luminous, jeweled toned paintings are tableaus into alternate spaces, distant landscapes or dream-like visions into what lies beyond a doorway or window. Assefjah updates these depictions to our current times by straddling representation and abstraction. The artist has participated in various solo and group exhibitions in Europe and the Near East and her paintings are in notable private and public collections including Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich; Gabriele Münter and Johannes Eichner Foundation, Munich; Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich; Guangdon Art Museum, China; Colección olorVISUAL, Barcelona; KICO Sammlung, Allianz Versicherungen, Münchner Rück, Munich; and BIZ, Bank für Internationale Zahlungsausgleich, Basel.
Mio Yamato takes on a near ritualistic approach to her accumulation of dotted and linear gestures, creating densely layered imagery. With her signature marks, Yamato’s paintings evoke organic phenomena, geological terrains and other patterns seen in natural formations. Her works explore notions of universality, systems and ever-changing continuums that occur on the micro and macro scale. Whether using the dot or line as a mark, the artist shifts the direction and patterns as she works allowing for chance to take over her process. Yamato is also known for creating monumental site-specific mural installations, such as Under My Skin at the Kyoto City Kyocera Museum. The artist hails from Kyoto and has exhibited widely in Asia in group and solo exhibitions. She has also been the recipient of numerous awards including an artist residency program at Fundación Casa Wabi in Oaxaca, Mexico. This is the third time HGFA features Yamato in an exhibition in the United States, thanks to the collaboration with COHJU Contemporary in Kyoto.
Nadia Yaron takes a unique approach to represent and experience the landscape as a genre. Drawing inspiration from the vast vistas provided by landscapes, Yaron reduces the bands of sky, tiers of land in the distance and closer topographies in the foreground into columnar sculptures. The artist carves and sands different types of stone, such as alabaster, marble and other locally sourced stone, and salvaged wood. She shapes each piece finishing them in varying textures, all the while following their natural veins and grains and working around their natural characteristics. Once each piece is finished, Yaron stacks the pieces together into a singular column, simplifying the visual layers of a landscape, bringing the boundless spaces and terrains to a human scale. Through these vertical structures, the Brazilian-born American artist references impermanence and our relationship with nature. Yaron has had many solo and group exhibitions in the United States, and her sculptures are highly sought after by collectors here and abroad.
Heather Gaudio Fine Art specializes in emerging and established artists, offering painting, works on paper, photography, and sculpture. The gallery provides a full-range of art advisory services, from forming and maintaining a collection, to securing secondary market material, to assisting with framing and installation. The focus is on each individual client, selecting art that best serves his or her vision, space, and resources. The six exhibitions offered every year are designed to present important talent and provide artwork appealing to a broad range of interests. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday; 10:30am to 5:30pm; and by appointment.

The Annual Members Juried Exhibition 2025 @Bendheim Gallery
Heather Gaudio Fine Art is pleased to present Formal Approaches, featuring works by Hyun Jung Ahn, Mojé Assefjah, Mio Yamato and Nadia Yaron. The exhibition will be on view October 4 – November 15.
The artists in the show share varied yet distinct formal approaches to their creative process. Through abstraction, they explore themes around emotional and psychological spaces and how natural elements shape our physical worlds and surroundings.
About the Artists:
Hyun Jung Ahn presents her ongoing investigations into memory, psychological interiorities, and the interpretation of emotional states of being. Offering an interplay between color and form, her paintings create a balanced composition made with different pieces of linen or canvas that are painted and stitched together. An artist-in-residency program at MASS MoCA in 2018 led Ahn to discover a new way to make a mark and create a line by using a sewing machine. Since then, the sewn thread has become integral to her work, offering Ahn a way to explore chance and geometric abstraction by dividing, fragmenting and joining different shapes on the picture plane. Coupled with a thoughtfully colored palette or more muted, monochromatic tones, Ahn’s paintings are eloquent modernist abstractions. Ahn has exhibited widely in the United States and in Korea, where she also teaches. Her works are represented in many private and corporate collections including TD Bank Corporation Art Collection, Toronto.
Mojé Assefjah was born in Tehran and moved to Germany with her family in 1986 where she attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. She later did artist-in-residency programs in Rome and Spain. This is the first time the artist exhibits in the United States and the exhibition is made possible with the collaboration of Galerie Tanit in Munich. Working with traditional egg tempera, Assefjah paints vividly chromatic works that are heavily influenced by the Italian Old Masters, miniature Persian paintings and calligraphy. Referencing still life and landscape genres, the artist’s luminous, jeweled toned paintings are tableaus into alternate spaces, distant landscapes or dream-like visions into what lies beyond a doorway or window. Assefjah updates these depictions to our current times by straddling representation and abstraction. The artist has participated in various solo and group exhibitions in Europe and the Near East and her paintings are in notable private and public collections including Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich; Gabriele Münter and Johannes Eichner Foundation, Munich; Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich; Guangdon Art Museum, China; Colección olorVISUAL, Barcelona; KICO Sammlung, Allianz Versicherungen, Münchner Rück, Munich; and BIZ, Bank für Internationale Zahlungsausgleich, Basel.
Mio Yamato takes on a near ritualistic approach to her accumulation of dotted and linear gestures, creating densely layered imagery. With her signature marks, Yamato’s paintings evoke organic phenomena, geological terrains and other patterns seen in natural formations. Her works explore notions of universality, systems and ever-changing continuums that occur on the micro and macro scale. Whether using the dot or line as a mark, the artist shifts the direction and patterns as she works allowing for chance to take over her process. Yamato is also known for creating monumental site-specific mural installations, such as Under My Skin at the Kyoto City Kyocera Museum. The artist hails from Kyoto and has exhibited widely in Asia in group and solo exhibitions. She has also been the recipient of numerous awards including an artist residency program at Fundación Casa Wabi in Oaxaca, Mexico. This is the third time HGFA features Yamato in an exhibition in the United States, thanks to the collaboration with COHJU Contemporary in Kyoto.
Nadia Yaron takes a unique approach to represent and experience the landscape as a genre. Drawing inspiration from the vast vistas provided by landscapes, Yaron reduces the bands of sky, tiers of land in the distance and closer topographies in the foreground into columnar sculptures. The artist carves and sands different types of stone, such as alabaster, marble and other locally sourced stone, and salvaged wood. She shapes each piece finishing them in varying textures, all the while following their natural veins and grains and working around their natural characteristics. Once each piece is finished, Yaron stacks the pieces together into a singular column, simplifying the visual layers of a landscape, bringing the boundless spaces and terrains to a human scale. Through these vertical structures, the Brazilian-born American artist references impermanence and our relationship with nature. Yaron has had many solo and group exhibitions in the United States, and her sculptures are highly sought after by collectors here and abroad.
Heather Gaudio Fine Art specializes in emerging and established artists, offering painting, works on paper, photography, and sculpture. The gallery provides a full-range of art advisory services, from forming and maintaining a collection, to securing secondary market material, to assisting with framing and installation. The focus is on each individual client, selecting art that best serves his or her vision, space, and resources. The six exhibitions offered every year are designed to present important talent and provide artwork appealing to a broad range of interests. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday; 10:30am to 5:30pm; and by appointment.

Music Theatre of Connecticut (MTC) MainStage, Fairfield County’s award-winning professional theatre company, continues their 39th season with the wild and hilarious comedy, Ken Ludwig’s The Fox on the Fairway.

The production runs from November 7th through the 23rd with performances on Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm & 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm.
A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox on the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp pulling the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life and man's eternal love affair with... golf.

The Wilton Playshop Presents Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Greater Bridgeport Symphony (GBS) continues its 80th season exploring New Horizons. The spirited rhythms of South America head up this unique concert “ Horizons of Fire ,” at the Mertens Theater (in the Bernhardt Center at the University of Bridgeport) on November 15 at 7:30pm. New maestro, Brazilian-born/American citizen Eduardo Leandro , will conduct an evening of Villa-Lobos’ and Piazzolla’s music, capped by Bartok’s Divertimento for Strings . Tickets are on sale now HERE.
GBS Executive Director Phyllis Cortese says, “Eduardo is from Belo Horizonte, Brazil, which means ‘beautiful horizon,’ and this season, his first as GBS Music Director, he’ll bring our audience to beautiful ‘New Horizons’ of music.”
The concert opens with Heitor Villa-Lobos’ Bachianas Brasileiras No. 4 , a fusion of Brazilian folk and popular music with the structure of Bach, through which the Classical listener experiences the Brazilian landscape. Then the music shifts south toward Tierra del Fuego with Astor Piazzolla’s Four Seasons of Buenos Aires ; it’s a fiery concerto with roots in Vivaldi’s iconic Four Seasons , influenced by Piazzolla’s bicultural life in Argentina and Greenwich Village. For both pieces, GBS presents the vibrant violin solos of Tong Chen, who will also serve as concertmaster for the evening.
In the second half, the concert remains grounded in the fusion of Classical and folk music, but its focus shifts 6,000 miles to Hungary and one of the great concerti of Béla Bartók. The title description “Divertimento” is Italian for an entertaining and engaging composition. A common Italian wish for those setting off on an adventure is, “Buon divertimento!” – have fun.
The concert venue is new to GBS (whose schedule includes three concerts at The Klein Memorial Auditorium and another at Mertens) and offers concertgoers two extra treats: before the concert and at intermission, GBS will team up with Bridgeport’s City Lights Gallery in their exhibition of local artists on view at the Schelfhaudt Gallery, right across the hall from the concert. Some of the artists will attend this pre-concert event, while advanced students from Bridgeport’s KEYS Program ( K ids E mpowered by Y our S upport) will provide music for art lovers; Maestro Eduardo has personally begun a monthly mentorship program with KEYS, and other collaborations between GBS and KEYS are being planned.
Also, a Pre-Concert Talk will be held at 7:00pm in its own space – the Littlefield Theater , just across the lobby from the concert – where GBS Trustee and musicologist Dr. Frank Martingnetti will guide concertgoers through the music of the program. After the talk, concertgoers can stroll across Mertens’ lobby and take their seats for the evening.
“The whole night will be a new experience for GBS fans,” says GBS Board President Mark Halstead. “The Mertens Theater is ideally sized for this performance, and very comfortable. Every seat in the house has fantastic legroom, and Mertens is easy to get to with ample parking, patrolled by U.B. Security. The Brazilian and Argentine music is a lively new sound, and our collaboration with the visual arts and youth music will make this a special event for all. Even the Pre-Concert Talk is better-timed than usual, so more people can take advantage of it.” Maestro Eduardo agrees, having selected the music of this concert especially for this inviting, radial space, to create an intimate musical experience. Says Leandro, “What fascinates me about the three composers in this concert is their ability to blend the tradition of their countries (Argentina, Brazil, Hungary) perfectly with the western classical canon. Villa-Lobos writes a long series of Bachianas, borrowing from and paying homage to Bach but still keeping a Brazilian flair, while Piazzolla borrows from Vivaldi’s famous Four Seasons adding to his famous modern tango. Bartók creates an entirely new language based the rich Hungarian and Balkan folk tradition that on which he was such an expert. Is this classical music? Folk or (to use a terribly misunderstood word) ‘ethnic’ music? I have no idea, but it is done with respect and understanding of their origins, and above all, it is music that’s tremendously exciting to play!”
This concert is the second of five in GBS’ 80th Season series, New Horizons. Each concert this season is themed after one of the Classical elements. In addition to “Horizons of Fire,” GBS has scheduled three other upcoming concerts: “Holiday Quintessence” (December 20 at The Klein), “Horizons of the Earth” (March 14 at Mertens), and “Horizons of Water” (April 11 at The Klein) all of which can still be purchased at a 15% discount as a three or four-concert subscription ranging in price from $54.00-$184.00 (three-concert) and $72.00-$245.00 (four-concert), depending on seating location. Single tickets for each show range from $21.00-$72.00 and can be purchased at www.GBS.org/tickets or by calling GBS at (203)576-0263. Kids under 19 are always free, and tickets for accompanying adults are 15% (only available by calling GBS).

Music Theatre of Connecticut (MTC) MainStage, Fairfield County’s award-winning professional theatre company, continues their 39th season with the wild and hilarious comedy, Ken Ludwig’s The Fox on the Fairway. Set on the manicured greens of an elite golf club, this farce is full of outrageous antics, romantic entanglements, and uproarious misunderstandings. The production runs from November 7th through the 23rd with performances on Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm & 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm.
A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox on the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp pulling the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life and man's eternal love affair with... golf.
