They say that art imitates life. But sometimes art imitates other art, even if by coincidence. 

 

Artist and friend of The Tee & Charles Addams Foundation Suzanne Heilmann’s masterpieces get a special twist in this exhibit, which pairs her imaginative works alongside an artist who also had a flair for the extraordinary – Charles Addams.

ABOUT THE ARTIST: SUZANNE HEILMANN

A self-proclaimed “Texturalist," where art draws inspiration from what she observes and finds around her, Suzanne often incorporates “found” objects into her work, and melds the traditional with the diverse.

To some, it will be hard to believe that all her works of art were done by the same person. Suzanne’s art moves throughout all mediums, including layers of paint, paper, fabric, copper/metals, or wood. These materials create work diverse enough to transcend expectations, while keeping a common thread throughout. 

 

The AddamsFest team stumbled upon Suzanne’s work during a visit to Charles Addams’ home in The Hamptons in 2020. They were delighted to find art as whimsical and mysterious as that of Addams himself, and are excited to share Ms. Heilmann’s work with Westfield.
