Persona
January, 2013
Maloney Art Gallery, College of Saint Elizabeth, New Jersey, U.S.
Persona, an art exhibition examining the externalization of the psychological “self” in painting, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, photography, and video art, opens January 31, 2013, with an artists’ reception from 4:30 to 7 p.m. in the Therese A. Maloney Art Gallery in Annunciation Center at the College of Saint Elizabeth. The event is free and open to the public.
The exhibition is curated by Virginia Fabbri Butera, Ph.D., director of the Maloney Art Gallery, who says, “The exhibition reveals that artists using both figurative as well as abstract images are able to convey various aspects of human psychology through the formal elements of color, line, shading, pattern, composition as well as the addition of other visual elements and symbols to create the vast range of human feeling and personality.”
The exhibition, which includes objects by 32 artists from New Jersey, California, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Tennessee, will be on view through April 14, 2013.
