Michael S. Guertin exhibits his distinctive images from coast to coast and internationally. While his inspirations come primarily from early twentieth century artistic movements (e.g., Fauvism, Cubism, Vorticism, Futurism and Expressionism), his work utilizes twenty-first century technology (e.g., digital, slit-scan and 3D photography, 3D computer modeling and video software programming).
Michael's work is on continuous display at:

The DeBlois Gallery is an artists’ nonprofit co-operative, showing contemporary paintings, ceramic sculpture, original prints and drawings, assemblages, collages, and works in mixed media, fiber and metal. |
"I am beyond fond of the DeBlois Gallery, the little Bellevue Avenue cooperative art gallery that is nearing three decades of dedicated survival. I love the place. Always have. Just the idea that a small band of local artists would relish their own experience to the point of volunteering to share the duties and responsibilities of running an art gallery inspires me. The fact that at least half a dozen of the originals are still invloved and that they have attracted new members and that they just keep the place going makes it all the more special.
More than that, they don't show only their own work. In fact, at DeBlois the emphasis most of the year is on other artists' art ... [There is an annual members' show], but for most of the year, DeBlois hosts an array of artists from the region and the state."
