Exhibition History
All exhibitions organized by The Galleries at Moore unless otherwise indicated.
Community CoLAB: Greenfield Stories: School as Community
December 14, 2007 – January 6, 2008
Window on Race Street
Greenfield Stories is an artistic collaboration between The Galleries at Moore, Moore College of Art & Design’s Art Education Department, and 4th through 6th grade students from the Albert M. Greenfield School. Consisting of large painted panels and photographs, Greenfield Stories draws its themes from conversations and interviews with current and former members of the Greenfield community—parents, students, teachers and staff. The end result is a visual story of the people who have helped shape the school into the vibrant community that it is today. The project is part of The Galleries’ new outreach initiative, Community CoLAB, which fosters and presents artistic collaborations between Moore students and community groups and organizations.

InSights: Eva Wylie - Overlaps
October 26 – December 9, 2007
Window on Race Street
Wylie, a Philadelphia-based artist, is creating a site-specific installation commissioned by Moore for its InSights series of exhibitions installed in the window on Race Street. Wylie’s images are drawn from a variety of sources including the Internet, water bottles, travel magazines, advertisements, as well as from her own “tourist” photographs. Working with the architecture of the space, she uses a silkscreen method directly on unconventional materials as well as on the walls and windows to transform the space and context of the sources of her imagery. Curated by Lorie Mertes, Rochelle F. Levy Director and Chief Curator.

Leila Cartier: A Natural Imbalance
September 6 – October 21, 2007
Wilson Gallery
Recent work by Moore Alumna, Class of 2004. Saturated, consuming and at times disorienting, Cartier’s paintings—with their abstract streaks of color and pattern— evoke an infinite landscape seen through a fast-moving Technicolor lens.
InSights: Joshua Levine - Trophy Room
September 6 – October 14, 2007
Window on Race Street
The site-specific installation in the new Window on Race Street project space by Los Angeles-based artist Joshua Levine presents a collection of fantasy animal heads in a “trophy room” of the future. At a time when creating designer animals through genetic engineering is a common practice and under great debate, Levine presents his vision of wildly designed hybrid “game” animals that have been fashioned by science and the hands of man. Presented as the first in the InSights series of exhibitions offering insight into the work of emerging artists and their working process. Curated by Lorie Mertes Rochelle F. Levy Director and Chief Curator.
