SISTA PRATESI : THE LIVING END
Jan 19 - Mar 2, 2012
In her new body of work Pratesi builds upon the themes of psychological transformation and transition found in her earlier paintings. Here totemic sculptures are recognized as having symbolic power, but their relationship with the world and their use, remains unknown. Objects are improvised and provisional, held in place by drawing pins, responsive to emotional intuition, connections with the subconscious, and mapping changed states of mind. Their making is not hidden, thereby creating a sense of possibility and growth. In The Living End pasts and futures are offered simultaneously while knowledge and truth remain elusive.

JANKEL ADLER : WORKS ON PAPER
Jan 19 - Mar 2, 2012
Jankel Adler (1895-1949) was one of the most respected Jewish artists of his generation. Throughout his career, Adler explored the tension between abstraction and naturalism. The works in this exhibition demonstrate the breadth of his investigations; figurative ink drawings from 1940 and 1941 display emotions, subtly caught in sketchy lines, while paintings from 1947 depict ambiguous, abstract symbols. What was consistent in Adler’s practice however, was a dedication to capturing the dignity of the human spirit.
