Gallery Project exhibition: Spirit

June 25 - Aug 3, Spirit

Gallery Project is located in the heart of Ann Arbor.
215 South Fourth Avenue
Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104
P (734) 997-7012

Gallery Project presents Spirit, an exhibit featuring artists who exalt in expressing the interior space of the soul in a post-modern period of pluralism. The exhibit, curated by Detroit painter, Ed Fraga, opens at noon on Wednesday, June 25 and continues through 4pm on Sunday, August 3. The opening reception is Friday, June 28 from 6-9.

Exhibiting artists include Mary Ann Aitken, Joyce Brienza, Ed Fraga, Scott Hocking, Frank Pahl, Tom Phardel, Terri Sarris, James Stevens and Sharon Que.

Expression of the spiritual through works of art has been with mankind throughout civilizations, from the Mayan Pyramids in Mexico to the Lascaux caves in France. The artists chosen for “Spirit” have a common love of materials to their respective aesthetics, whether expressed through paint or sculpture. The painters focus on narrative imagery. Each body of iconography finds a unique language to explore an individualized vision of self.

The sculptors approach more monumental themes of community and history. They reference past civilizations which communally express collective belief in the transcendent.

If successful, the exhibit will stimulate a discourse on the role artists play as visionaries in telling us something about ourselves as the body human.
