Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Quinn Delahanty

The quickest way to a Burlingtonian’s heart? A local beer tasting. Throw in a little art gawking between brews and you may get there even faster. Up-and-coming artist and recent University of Vermont grad Quinn Delahanty is showing her screen prints and sculptural paintings at the Magic Hat Artifactory in South Burlington through March 1. A self-dubbed investigator of both the elegant and grotesque, Delahanty strives to blur the boundary between beauty and brutality. Inspired by surrealism, her abstract interpretations of natural forms are both accessible and intriguing, and pair perfectly with a cold one — or two. Pictured: “Trunk.”
