PRLog -- The Center for Contemporary Art ("The Center") is pleased to announce three exhibitions on view through June 2.
"
Echoes of Abstraction," curated by John Reinking brings together the work of four contemporary ceramic artists:
Ruth Borgenicht (East Orange, NJ)
Eric Knoche (Asheville NC),
Joris Link ('s-Hertogonbosch, Netherlands)
, and
Tina Opp (Lark ND).
In his curatorial statement Reinking explains, "Echoes of Abstraction"
brings together four ceramic artists whose work celebrates the robust aesthetic of the three dimensional ceramic form and its relationship to abstract repetition. Each artist's work represents a unique way of achieving its own visual tempo. The rhythm and repetition in these works create a mood of organized movement.
John Reinking is an Associate Adjunct Professor at Raritan Valley Community College and teaching artist and Ceramics Program Manager at The Center for Contemporary Art in Bedminster, NJ. As a ceramic artist his work can be found in many private collections. He is represented by Peters Valley Craft Center and Connexions Gallery in Easton, PA and he exhibits in national group shows regularly.
"
Lindsay Godin: Futurisms" presents the work of
Lindsay Godin who was born in central New Jersey and got her MA & MFA in Studio Arts (emphasis in Photography)
at the University of Iowa in 2018. She researches photography curricula and is a fine arts documentary photographer. Her photography sheds awareness of contemporary cultural norms and exploitation of place. Lindsay is the Photography Coordinator and an Assistant Professor of Photography and Design at Valdosta State University in Georgia. She explains, the images in 'Futurisms' shed light on the endless continuum of mankind's propensity and instinctive motive to ultimately claim the unexplored territories that are beyond planet Earth."
The work of
Christine Sauerteig-Pilaar is showcased in her solo exhibition "
Christine Sauerteig-Pilaar: To Bare Witness." When discussing her exhibition, she says, "The work reflects on the complexity of the human experience with fragility, decay, power, rage, anguish, convergence and the ephemeral slipping through the materials like the thread I use to layer fabric and paper together." Christine Sauerteig-Pilaar is a contemporary artist living and working in New Jersey. She received her BFA from Parson's School of Design in 1993, and after living in New York City, relocated to New Jersey where she has continuously experimented with mediums that led to the eclectic mixed media paper constructions she is most notably recognized for.
