Digital Twin : Consumer Layers
Artists in this exhibition utilize three-dimensional layering techniques, transforming paper into newly contextualized artworks. They explore consumerism, incorporating the marketing and packaging material into their artistic process, inviting study of depth and details in layered work. Texture, color scheme, and form react and correspond with the elements of the site, offering a fresh significance through their interplay. Co-curated by Radar Curatorial and Kathleen Vance

View the show at online Consumer Layers

Digital Twin is a digital based project aimed at presenting a fresh perspective. It is artwork captured digitally in an original location, showcasing the interplay of light on surfaces, that alters the way art is experienced and opening the viewer up to novel ways of seeing in this digital environment.

Reception: Saturday, December 7th, 6-8
Viewing hours: Fri-Sun 12-5 and by appointment

The Presence of Absence
Curated by Jaynie Crimmins. This show at the Elza Kayal Gallery in Tribeca presents the work of 6 artists whose interpretations of the world are shaped by what is absent, what is present, and the interaction between the two. Joanne Ungar, Cynthia Reynolds, David X. Levine, Liz Jaff, Jeanne Heifetz and Anthony Amiewalan create objects that evoke associations with their presence, while conjuring associations with what is absent as well. In their work, absence is a presence with an essence of its own. September 13 - Ocotber 12, 2024

Bushwick Open Studios 2024

The annual event celebrated its 18th edition in September, with artists in good spirits despite rain and a subway line that didn’t run into Manhattan. I am happy to report that my artwork was photographed and written about in Hyperallergic.

Among Friends: Group Hug 2024
This was the 4th iteration of this fun group show — the 300 works on paper are zippered together. It is organized by Patricia Fabricant, Alexandra Rutsch Brock and Beth Dary, who gained inspiration for this show from Robert Rauschenberg’s 1978 "Hiccups". Among Friends reflects and responds to the strength and illumination we find through art, friendship and community. Try searching with #amongfriends2024 on Instagram to see all the outstanding donations in this show. The exhibit was at Metaphor Projects in Brooklyn in April 2024. Sales generated over $5000 to be contributed to Planned Parenthood.

Oct 12 - 16, 2022
Spectrum is a group show organized by Alexandra Rutsch Brock. Profits from the show will go to Planned Parenthood. The show is part of the Serious Fun Art Fair in Westchester in October. It will contain 130 works, hung in a “spectrum/rainbow” to create a harmonious visual flow, unifying the work, and at the same time highlighting the 130 artists’ individuality, diversity of media, processes and ideas.

Out of Line
March 5 - 27, 2022
This 5 person show is curated by Christina Massey of the Woart Blog at the Court Tree Collective in Industry City in Brooklyn.
To be “out of line” insinuates some sort of wrongdoing, social unacceptable behavior that can or should be corrected. The five women artists in this exhibition explore the often gendered application of this idiom. Through a diverse range of media including painting, mixed media, collage and ceramics the artists examine various aspects of living under the unwritten “rules” they feel in regards to socially appropriate behavior or interaction. Each artist explores a unique narrative, challenging notions of acceptability through personal, social and environmental concepts. Read more about the show in the press release.
Please join us for the opening reception on Saturday March 12, 3-5pm

GROUP SHOW AT NJCU MARCH 2008
Sustaining Vision: A Tribute to Arlene Raven
Harold B. Lemmerman Gallery, New Jersey City University
March 5 – April 16, 2008
Artist reception: March 5, 5 – 8 p.m.
Artists Panel Text and Texture: The Writing for Artists workshop of Arlene Raven
March 18, 5:30 – 7 p.m. at Gothic Lounge followed by a reception at the gallery.
In tribute to the late art critic Arlene Raven (1944-2006), eight artists—Elaine Angelopoulos, Donna Maria de Creeft, Janet Goldner, Amanda Guest, Judy Hoffman, Kerry Kehoe, Julie McConnell, and Joanne Ungar—have collaborated to create a multimedia art exhibition to celebrate her life and legacy. Over a decade ago, these artists met more in Raven’s writing workshops, called “Writing for Artists,” to develop writing skills to express their artistic concepts and processes. “Sustaining Vision” refers to Raven’s emphasis on promoting one’s creativity and nurturing it—respecting it as it might evolve, develop, or change. The artists came to trust themselves as they learned to trust each other using this approach. The work shown here encompasses many media, but all share some interesting convergences, making for a cohesive whole.
Curatorial consultant: Anne Swartz
This exhibition proudly participates in the national initiative, The Feminist Art Project and the Women's History Month Program of NJCU.
