The Sheldon Art Galleries Presents Two Free Gallery Talks with Artists Gina Alvarez and Jana Harper 3/19
The Sheldon Art Galleries presents two free Gallery Talks with artists Gina Alvarez and Jana Harper, in conjunction with the exhibit Gina Alvarez and Jana Harper: Poems by Bobby Thiel, Saturday, March 19 at 1 p.m. and another at 2 p.m. Gina Alvarez and Jana Harper discuss their work and their collaborative process, Nancy Spirtas Kranzberg Gallery, admission free.
Gina Alvarez and Jana Harper: Poems by Bobby Thiel, is a collaborative print project produced by St. Louis artists Gina Alvarez and Jana Harper during a residency at Pyramid Atlantic in Silver Spring , Maryland . The series was inspired by a child's notebook of poems made in the 1940s by a distant relative of Alvarez. The artists appropriated the titles of his poems and worked to create "collaged" images that combine photographs, images, shapes and colors inspired by Japanese prints, and Indian miniatures. They were made by layering digital prints with traditional printmaking techniques and hand-work that include drawing, stitching and collage.
The not-for profit Sheldon Art Galleries exhibits works by local, national, and International Artists in all media. Over 6,000 square feet of the galleries' spaces on the 2nd floor are permanently devoted to rotating exhibits of photography, architecture, jazz art and history, and children's art. A sculpture garden, seen from both the atrium lobby and the connecting glass bridge, features periodic rotations and installations, and the Nancy Spirtas Kranzberg Gallery on the lower level features art of all media. The Sheldon actively supports the work of St. Louis artists in all mediums and features a dedicated art gallery with museum-quality exhibits by St. Louis artists, past and present.
Financial Assistance for this project has been provided by the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency. Support is provided by the Regional Arts Commission and the Arts and Education Council.
