Conversations

R & F Gallery, 84 Ten Broeck Avenue, Kingston, New York

April 2-May 14, 2011

Laura Moriarty, director of the R & F Gallery, and I curated this show together. Conversations began as a Facebook discussion about the dialogue that exists within each artist's oeuvre between our primary expression, which for us is painting (Joanne) and sculpture (Laura), and the work we do on paper. We then expanded the idea into a group exhibition, in which those individual dialogues become larger conversations. Click here for a walk-through of the show.
