Danielle Bursk’s work is primarily abstract and incremental, the accumulation of small lines creating abstract forms that are suggestive of objects. Creating these forms, Bursk references nests, networks, webs, traps, nets, and the interconnectivity of actions and associations.
She is showing with Amie Potsic’s photographs and large format graphite drawings and ink and varnish paintings by Gregory Brellochs.
Philadelphia painter, Diane Lachman will exhibit Color Conversations at the MUSE Gallery which features new oil paintings and watercolors that that explore color as a means of visual communication. Lachman is interested in how color defines our idea of form and meaning. Her intuitive approach complements her years of teaching color theory at Penn Design at the University of Pennsylvania.Gallery hours are Wednesday through Sunday 12 to 5 pm or by appointment.
Extended hours
Sunday, Sept. 25 and Sunday Oct. 23, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Artists’ Reception
Sunday, Sept. 25, 2 - 4 p.m.
Totally Exposed is a photographic exhibition of work by emerging artist Sarah R. Bloom.
Bloom’s work is revealing, challenging, and disarming. As the setting for her nude self-portraiture, Bloom has chosen some of the most dramatic elements of America’s decaying industrial landscape — from abandoned mental asylums and churches to the wasteland of Detroit’s once thriving automobile factories. Her work is raw and often brave. The depth of her images reveals genuine beauty in the aesthetics of decay.
Thirteen paintings from the Roots series are currently showing at Green Line Cafe.
Mon-Sat 7am-10pm
Sun 8am-8pm
Through the end of September.
Máscara (Mask), is a juried exhibition exploring the contemporary use of the mask. More than 25 artists will be featured, with works in a variety of media, including drawing, mixed media, painting, photography, print, sculpture and video. Everyone wears a mask, whether literally or figurative. What are we trying to hide or reveal? Ancient man used the altered human form to represent the mysteries of his world. Shaman or medicine men wear body paint or crafted objects to transform themselves into forms from the spirit world.
