Betwixt and Between

12 Sep, 2019 - 19 Oct, 2019

Brexit.  Global Warming. Immigration. Identity.  Fake News 鈥hese are among the controversial issues today that exemplify the idea of being betwixt and between  -  for many, liberating concepts; for others,  deeply troubling, perhaps life threatening concepts.

Our next exhibition, BETWIXT AND BETWEEN, featuring over 40 photographs by forty artists, reflects on how comfortable photography has been with the notion of capturing a moment when results are not certain, intentions not clearly established, and reality subverted.

Even photography鈥檚 ability to depict reality is in question, with new tools that encourage a synthesis of multiple moments into one cogent image with multiple interpretations.  John Dowell鈥檚 African Union Church, 2018, depicts a modest church for an African American congregation, situated behind a field of cotton in what was once called Seneca Village.  Founded in 1825 by a black man, it grew into an integrated community, two thirds black and one third Irish and German, before it was leveled in 1857 by the right of eminent domain to make way for Central Park.
