To Have and to Hold
Golden Eye
Joanna Quigley forgoes technology in favor of something more tangible.
Quigley
began creating mail art of her own, first sending it to her best
friend, who had moved away to Alabama. Yet as her creative bent grew
over the years, so, too, did the extravagant envelopes adorned with
collages and drawings that poured out of her Havertown home.
Golden Eye
Sabine Friesicke's "Gold" and Simon Frost's "Oculus" at Gallery Joe
Methodically pulling her brush from left to right and top to bottom,
Friesicke creates layers upon layers with the treasure on the end — a
rich, shimmery glint of gold beaming from below.
Spirited Away
Now See ThisRobin Rice on Visual Art: The Spirit of the Figure: Four Views at Snyderman Gallery
The Snyderman Gallery show that ushers in 2009 isn't large, but the theme is ambitious and, appropriately, reflects back — way back — on the history of art. Owner Rick Snyderman says he was led to "The Spirit of the Figure" by
encounters with ancient Mesopotamian art at NYC's Metropolitan Museum.
