Gallery Opening: Making Do

May 3 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free
Join the Arts Council of Princeton for the Gallery Opening of Making Do. Free and open to all.
Each artist finds resonance in this stuff of life, from Shannon Curry Hartmann’s brooding pandemic era newspaper collages to Rachel Perry’s obsessive, beautiful and weirdly funny fruit sticker drawings. From Karla Carballar’s collection of fidgeting objects, arranged into a minimalist grid of maximal anxiety, to Heather Cox’s sculptural celebration of the snapshot era in all its mundane and yet somehow mysterious glory. Emna Zghal’s wood/print/collage conversations yield beautiful and haunting abstracted landscapes, and Mollie Murphy takes the small sculptures that emerge out of the stuff she scavenges and relocates them among wall hangings inspired by the original making- do mother-of-it-all: the hand made quilt.
Making Do is on view in the ACP’s Taplin Gallery from April 27 – May 24. An Artist Talk will take place Friday, May 17 at 6pm.
