Let generosity be infectious: Join the artist support pledge

Take the Artist Support Pledge


Fellow artists we wanted to make you aware of this campaign that has launched on Instagram. Show your generosity. Sell some affordable work, buy some affordable work.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many artists have found themselves without work, teaching, technical support and gallery work. Exhibitions and sales have disappeared.

In an attempt to help alleviate some of this stress Matthew Burrows has instigated the ARTIST SUPPORT PLEDGE #artistsupportpledge

November 13 2019 - Elena Bouvier is at Lincoln Square PHL today completing her installation of Laying Around in the CFEVA ArtBox. It's exciting that the Center for Emerging Visual Artists have selected her and this large artwork which involves illumination — on Philadelphia's Avenue of the Arts.

Laying Around is constructed with Inkjet on plexiglass, cigar boxes, copper tube, 7.5 watt bulbs and extension cords.

Stop by and say hello today or after the installation is complete. Illumination is set on a timer. 

Seen and Liked: Keith R. Breitfeller, New Paintings at Abington Arts Center

Walking into the Kellner Gallery at Abington Art Center is a silent color explosion. Our favorites were the yellow paintings which were promises of the warmth and energy of Spring. 

Each of the paintings consists of brush dabs of thick pigment that obscure energetic underpaintings. Just a peek shows through the calm repititive quieting.

The gallery is occupied by a large curved wall, bulging into the space. The structure spans wall to wall, floor to ceiling. Built of hand cut cardboard, the surface recalls layers of sediment. Through the corrugation a dawn tinted light dapples the observer. Behind the wall, light glares through a barely distinguishable forest of vertical lines. Moving in front of the wall, your ability to focus on any one trunk is frustrated by the limited view.
