Postales
Mestizas:
An Emerging Installation
by Catalina
Barroso-Luque
January through May, 2014
Over the next five months, the circulating gallery on the main reading room floor of the Institute Library will gradually be transformed into a display of Postales Mestizas, by Catalina Barroso-Luque, with a new image from the series installed each week from now through May.
The artist has fashioned these small-scale works
out of collaged, collected post-cards and other found images, and her
own discarded photo-prints. They are an intuitive recycling of the
artist's physical and mental imagery that aims to bring into
question the boundaries between personal and collective memory, as
well as established notions of cultural
aesthetics.

Currently on exhibit through the end of February in the Gilbert Gallery in the Main building are
works by Barbara Grossman.
The reception is February 15th from 5-7pm.
Barbara
Grossman's paintings and oil stick drawings depict the interplay of
women in interiors. They are characterized by intense color, multiple
patterns, and dynamic spaces that are simultaneously deep and shallow.
She is deeply involved in the tension between the dynamics of the
luminosity of color and the folding and torque of space that observation
and experience reveals. Each configuration is a renewed exploration of
the visual language. If there is a narrative, the viewers are at liberty
to determine that for themselves.
Barbara
Grossman was born and raised in New York City where she attended the
High School of Music and Art and then Cooper Union from which she earned
her BFA in 1965. She studied at Yale Norfolk and at the Academie der
Kunst, Munich, Germany (Diplomate). Grossman has shown extensively in
the United States and was a member of the Bowery Gallery in New York for
37 years. Barbara Grossman has been
a visiting artist and critic at Boston University, American University,
Brandeis, Dartmouth, Vermont Studio Center, Chautauqua School of Art
and many others. She has taught at University of Pennsylvania, Western
Connecticut State University, and most recently was on the faculty of
the Yale School of Art.
She currently lives and works in Connecticut.
The exhibit can be seen from 8 to 4 M-F (and on weekends from 12-3 by ringing the buzzer at Main building's door).
