PAINT IT BLACK
Curated by D. Ferrari
In western culture black has a long association with the negative - sin, holes, evil, voids, depravity, the sinister and the absence of light, to name a few. This show will draw attention to artists who have used a predominantly black palette and their reasons for choosing black, which vary nearly as much as the reasons existing for art-making - to draw out from nothingness issues of transcendence, social pressures, purity of form, spiritual identity, racial issues, and more. Artists Exhibited were Chakaia Booker Karen Gunderson, K ocot + Hadden, Gary Kuehn, Sol Lewitt, Quentin Morris, Lars Strandh, Ad Reinhardt, Richard Serra, and Merrill Wagner.

NeoRococo Show
Curated by Douglas Ferrari.
Reception: Sunday, Sept. 13th, 3-6pm.
Rococo
was an 18th century style characterized by intricate ornamentation, free and graceful movements, a playful use of line, and delicate colors, and portrayed the care-free life of the aristocracy. Many artists today seem to be exploring similar visual elements and sensibilities. Is this merely coincidental? Are they deliberately exploring Rococo artistic styles? Are they inadvertently embracing today's aristocracy? These questions are what this exhibition will investigate and hopefully answer.
Those artists whose works are being sought for inclusion in this exhibition are Maike Abetz, David Ambrose, James Barsness, Laura Bell, Nancy Blum, John Bowman, Tiffany Calvert, Oliver Drescher, Lisa Ficarelli-Halpern, Francesca Gabbiani, Julie Heffernan, Susan Homer, Judith Hudson, Jill Kerwick, Isabella Kirkland, Katherine Kuharic, Claire McConaughy, Margaret Murphy, Gae Savannah , and Kehinde Wiley.

Adoration / Objectification
Curated by Douglas Ferrari.

This show will illustrate this and explore why this change has occurred. Those artists whose work is being sought for inclusion are Catherine Brooks, Orly Cogan, John Currin, Wei Dong, Grace Graupe-Pillard, Mel Ramos, Alicia Ross, Alberto Vargas, Jennifer Watson and Cindy Workman.
