SUMMARY:Decisive Moment
DESCRIPTION:Decisive Moment\nPhotography by artist Evan Wolarsky\nOn view: Feb 14 – Mar 14\nOpening: Sat\, Feb 14 | 3-5pm\nExhibition Statement:\nEvan Wolarsky was a devoted street photographer\, roaming the streets of New York\, the Princeton campus\, and destinations around the world in pursuit of what Henri Cartier-Bresson famously called the “decisive moment”\, that fleeting instant when form\, emotion\, and meaning align. Working primarily in black and white\, Wolarsky captured scenes of everyday life with sensitivity\, patience\, and a keen eye for human presence. \nEvery photograph in this exhibition was printed by Wolarsky himself. From 1976 to 1993\, he maintained an extensive darkroom in his Pennington home\, mastering traditional photographic printing techniques. Later\, he transitioned seamlessly into digital printing\, developing deep expertise in Photoshop and a nuanced understanding of papers\, inks\, and printers. His commitment to craft remained constant across technologies\, with the final print always central to his practice. \nWolarsky’s passion for photography began at the age of nine\, when his father gifted him a Leica camera\, a moment that sparked a lifelong artistic pursuit far beyond hobby. Alongside his creative work\, Wolarsky led a distinguished career in medicine\, earning degrees from Harvard\, the University of Pennsylvania\, and Wharton\, completing surgical training at Columbia-Presbyterian\, serving in the U.S. Navy\, and later becoming the first medical director of Hunterdon Medical Center before retiring in 1999. \nIn addition to being a dedicated physician\, Wolarsky was a gifted pianist\, marathon runner\, and active member of the artistic community. His photographs have been exhibited at Soho Photo Gallery in New York City\, Ellarslie at the Trenton City Museum\, and in national online exhibitions\, and are held in private collections throughout the Princeton area. \nPhotographs in this exhibition are available for purchase\, with proceeds benefiting the Arts Council of Princeton. \n

SUMMARY:Live printmaking with Anne Reeves Artist-in-Residence Nancy Hackett
DESCRIPTION:This live printmaking event will mark the culmination of Nancy Hackett’s Anne-Reeves Artist Residency. \nHackett will activate the Sands lobby with finished prints on display and live linocut printmaking\, offering visitors an opportunity to witness the printmaking process in real time. Guests are invited to observe as carved blocks are inked and printed by hand\, celebrating both the residency conclusion and the power of process-based art.  \nArtist Statement:Through my printmaking work I explore ecology and the human relationship with the natural world. The complexities of ecosystems and the interconnected\, often symbiotic\, nature of organism relationships intrigues me. I want my prints to tell this story while highlighting the beauty of nature through a lens of human appreciation.I have spent my whole life in New Jersey and have always loved exploring the ecology of this area. I have also worked on various farms and gardens which has cultivated my connection to plants and the importance of taking care of the land.This ongoing body of work explores the ecology of Central Jersey with an understated but important focus on farms and food systems. The reference images for the prints were from farms and gardens (including my own) in New Jersey where I have worked. In support of our local food system a portion of the profits from these sales will be donated to Northeast Organic Farming Association of NJ (NOFA).I will also be printing live at the opening to include the viewer in the art process. Printmaking is a time intensive process filled with a lot of care\, similar to farming and gardening.
