Henry Bermudez Exhibition ReceptionPresented by Free Library of Philadelphia - Print and Picture Collection June 14, 2012 Henry Bermudez
Print and Picture Hallway Gallery, 2nd floor
April 30th-June 30th, 2012

His drawings exude a surrealistic atmosphere, suggesting a mythology full of cultures lost in the wilds of the jungle or living in a primordial world. Vines and trees are sinuous tangles emerging from the... | Free Library of Philadelphia - Print and Picture Collection | 06/14/12 | Philadelphia |

Kell Connell: Double LifePresented by Gallery 339 at Gallery 339 May 11-July 21, 2012 In Double Life, Kelli Connell constructs scenes that appear to be tender everyday moments from a relationship—a couple flirts or argues or gently holds each other. Yet closer examination reveals a profound puzzle; the two figures are identical. The recognition of this fact comes as one of the most sublime surprises in contemporary photography. This unexpected revelation is particularly satisfying because it is not a sharp punch line; it is a slowly emerging realization,... | Gallery 339 | 05/11/12- 07/21/12 | Philadelphia |
