Denise Bibro Fine Art, NYC, is pleased to announce Holly Gordon’s exhibition at the Kellenberg Hall Art Gallery of Molloy University. This special exhibition highlights Holly Gordon’s collaboration with Long Island artist Ward Hooper and the culmination of their work which resulted in the publication of a book “Parallel Perspectives : The Brush/ Lens Collaboration.”
The exhibition will showcase several pairs of works comprised of images conceptualized by each artist when they visited the same places. This project displays the ways in which artists can and do pair up to work in symbiosis. Gordon and Hopper’s collaboration continues a long tradition of Long Island coupled artists creating and experiencing art using this place as an incubator for creativity. Among these partnerships are those of Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock, Elaine and Willem De Kooning, Helen Torr and Arthur Dove. Gordon’s pioneering of photo-liminalism combined with the solid traditional underpinnings of Ward’s painting process brings 20th century historical phenomena to the 21st century.
Kellenberg Hall Art Gallery of Molloy University is located at 1000 Hempstead Avenue, Rockville Centre, NY. The gallery is open Monday – Friday, 9 AM – 5 PM.
An Artist Reception will be held on December 7th, 3-5 PM. Denise Bibro, Director of Denise Bibro Fine Art, NYC, will give an Introduction to Holly Gordon, her collaboration with Ward Hooper, and the history of Long Island Artist. It will be followed by a talk by Holly Gordon herself.
Ms. Gordon is a seasoned and consummate artist, having decades of experience not only as an exhibiting photographer but also an educator. Besides exhibiting extensively in Long Island and New York City she has had numerous shows and speaking engagements throughout the United States.
