Instinctual connections pull us toward conclusions. The work in this exhibition involves curiosity, reaction, and natural repetition. It is an abstract conversation in the absence of color. 

Paintings by Tom Hlas, drawings by Trish Thompson, and an installation by Wendy Wolf.

Street Chairs.  It doesn’t matter what city or country, or whether you’re walking or driving by.  They indulge us for a respite. We oblige and pause to contemplate their scene.  We become a part of it. And because they are different, they evoke a sense of fun in us.

The Wall of Women (WoW) is an ongoing project conceived by Philadelphia photographer / artist, Anne Saint Peter, to honor the many talented women of all disciplines in the Arts.

Begun in the fall of 2008, the project includes black and white analog portraits of over 100 artistic women, including the visual arts, poetics, music and dance.  The intent is to showcase the many talented women in the arts – an often overlooked group.

“The project will go on forever,” says Saint Peter, “a kind of Judy Chicago ‘Dinner Party’ that just keeps evolving.”

Neutral Disturbance pairs the sculpture of Amy Ralston and drawings of Stella Untalan.
