SUMMARY:Art Opening- Lisa Elmaleh: Tierra Prometida/Jessica Wolff: The New Mestiza
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception of the exhibition “Lisa Elmaleh: Tierra Prometida /\nJessica Wolff: The New Mestiza” Thur\, 9/12\, 6:00 pm.\n\n\nLisa Elmaleh: Tierra PrometidaJessica Wolff: The New Mestiza\nTwo Photographers Depict Stories of Migration and Immigration in the U.S. Today \nOn view Sept 12–Oct 13\, 2024\nOpening Reception: Thurs\, Sept 12\, 2024\n6:00–8:00 pm\n \nTHE GALLERY at the Visual & Performing Arts Center \nWestern Connecticut State University \nWestside Campus\, 43 Lake Ave Extension\, Danbury\, CT 06811 \nGallery Hours: Tues–Fri\, 12–4\, Sat–Sun\, 1–4 \n \nLisa Elmaleh is a 2024 Guggenheim Fellow. Her photographic series\, Tierra Prometida\, captures the multifaceted aspects of migration at the border between the United States and Mexico. Created with a 1930s-era large format camera\, her work encompasses the people\, landscape\, migratory routes\, and humanitarian efforts there. While conveying both empathy and urgency\, the series challenges the myth of the American Dream from the perspective of the borderland environs\, the individuals seeking asylum in the United States\, and the volunteers and groups involved in providing essential assistance to migrants. \nJessica Wolff’s photographs delve into the experience of being Mexican-American and navigating the dynamics of two cultures that often clash or contradict each other. Embracing the term “mestizos” (of mixed race)\, Jessica acknowledges her and her subjects’ Indigenous and Spanish ancestry. Using symbols and icons from both Mexican and American history\, she creates a fusion that represents a new culture\, new myths\, new icons\, and new images\, where there is no longer a strict division between Mexican and American identities\, but rather the emergence of a new mestiza culture. \nTHE GALLERY at the Visual & Performing Arts Center is dedicated to presenting professional\, contemporary art exhibitions and cultural programming. By providing outstanding visual art experiences\, we seek to inspire our audiences to embrace new ideas and perspectives and appreciate art in all its forms.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception of the exhibition “Meticulous: Methodical Approaches to Making Art” on Thur\, Oct 24\, at 6:00 pm.\n\n\nMETICULOUS:\nMethodical Approaches to Making Art\nDarlene Charneco \nKathy Greenwood \nMichiyo Ihara \nNathan Meltz \nAliyah Salmon \nChristopher Werner \nOn view Oct 24–Dec 8\, 2024\nOpening Reception: Thurs\, Oct 24\, 2024\n6:00–8:00 pm\n \nTHE GALLERY at the Visual & Performing Arts Center \nWestern Connecticut State University \nWestside Campus\, 43 Lake Ave Extension\, Danbury\, CT 06811 \nGallery Hours: Tues–Fri\, 12–4\, Sat–Sun\, 1–4 \n \nThe term “meticulous” implies order and attention to detail; this exhibition presents a group of artists working in various media who employ specific systematic procedures\, processes\, and techniques to create their work. The use of particular parameters can be dictated by the chosen medium\, but the methodology is not always by design and may even feel compulsory or necessary. The works in this exhibit explore this aspect of creativity. \nThe Gallery at the Visual & Performing Arts Center is dedicated to presenting professional\, contemporary art exhibitions and cultural programming. By providing outstanding visual art experiences\, we seek to inspire our audiences to embrace new ideas and perspectives and appreciate art in all its forms.
