Theodore Prescott:
The Reconstituted Cross

A reception and gallery talk will be held at noon on Tuesday, June 27, 2006.

Artist’s Statement

I stumbled into making crosses almost 30 years ago.  I made a piece that many people saw as a cruciform image, though that was not my intention.  But the resemblance was clear, and started me thinking about crosses and their imagery.  In the early 1980s I embarked on a series.  Two crosses from that initial series, Florentine and Selma Cross are exhibited here.  My goal was to make useful liturgical objects for the church.(more)

Blessing Christ II (Lotus Feet), batikSeeing with Indian Eyes:
The Art and Faith
of P. Solomon Raj

January 17 through March 3, 2006

Curator’s Statement

I first became aware of the work of Dr. Raj through copies of the journal, Image: Christ in Art in Asia, given to me by Naomi Wray, to whom I will always be grateful for introducing me to the art of Christians living in India and elsewhere in Asia. In this exhibition of prints and batiks, P. Solomon Raj demonstrates his technical virtuosity as an artist, often reinterpreting similar visual ideas in woodcuts, etchings, and batiks, or revisiting the same composition at a different scale. The result is a surprising freshness, a directness of gesture that draws the viewer in to examine the differences as well as noting the similarities.(more)

BORIS KOZLOV
(1937-1999)

 

Widely considered to be among the most talented and idiosyncratic representatives of Russian painting throughout the 1960’s and well into the 90’s, the works of underground artists and master iconographer Boris Kozlov (1937-1999) continue to awe both Russian art enthusiasts and private collectors. His talent has attracted world-class curators from Moscow’s Tretriakov Gallery to St. Petersburg’s Russian Museum—to even the Kremlin—and continues to spiritually move those who have had the chance to view his very special canvases in person.
