Elemental / Ornamental
Levy Gallery for the Arts in Philadelphia
January 16 – March 3, 2010
Transcendence through abstraction and form is the focus of these works in a variety of media by Moore Alumnae Jill Bonovitz ’71, Mary Judge ’75, and Deborah Warner ’69. The show features fragile translucent vessels and wire sculptures by Jill Bonovitz, mesmerizing traces of ink on handmade paper by Mary Judge and poetic fragments of memory and place embedded in encaustic by Deborah Warner. Fluidity between form and meaning is evident in each of the artist’s working process and the elemental aspects of their chosen media. Curated by Lorie Mertes, Director and Chief Curator.
