TWO NEW DIGITAL EXHIBITIONS

Announcing the first two digital exhibitions featuring artists from our 2023 Open Call. More exhibitions will debut throughout the year.

Other Worldly

Does Life Exist Elsewhere? How do our dreams inform our daily life, our connection to ancestors, or the future? Other Worldly brings together artists who share an interest in the spiritual, dream states, altered reality, interstitial spaces, unknown dimensions, and in general, notions of life that exist outside the world we know.

Featured Artists: Caroline Blum, Julia Cella, Marc Chicoine, Gary Cruz, Vincent Dion, Mari Firkatian, Michelle Lisa Herman, Renée S. Hughes, M Johnson, Noëlle King, Louise Laplante, Madison LaVallee, Mary Louise Learned, Roy Money, Andrea Morganstern, Sue Mullaney, Donna Namnoum, Hilary Nylander, Judith Orenstein, Aleksandra Paranchenko, Madeline Richard, Anne Rynearson, Olivia Springberg, Yige Tong, Yoshie Tsuzuki, Amanda Walker, Karen Wheeler, Qiaosen Yang

Hard Edge

The works in this show are marked by precision, and clarity, to explore abstraction, geometry, and color in all its configurations and possibilities. Works pay tribute to 1960 pioneers who rejected painterly abstraction and turned to geometric and color field painting. The artists in this exhibit incorporate these tenets into forms reflective of current ideas.

Featured Artists: Beverly Marya Bajek, Yvonne Buchanan, Olivia Carle, Beth Caspar, Cynthia Cooper, Kathleen DeMeo, Andrzej Dutkanicz, Ellen Gordon, Dan Gries, Eddie Hall, Richard King, André Kit, Stephen Klema, Medusa Moon, Lina Morielli, Jane Sangerman, Robin Sherin, Alexandra Wahl
