SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: "REWRITING HER STORY" at the Hera Gallery
DESCRIPTION:“Writer Elizabeth Lesser asks “What story would Eve have told about picking the apple? Why is Pandora blamed for opening the box? And what about the fate of Cassandra who was blessed with knowing the future but cursed so that no one believed her?” \nFlipping through the pages of your high school history textbook\, how many stories are written about women as monumental protagonists? When was the last time you watched a movie that passed the Bechdel test? When was the last time there were more women than men on the Supreme Court voting on the right to our bodies?  \nAs brands of “faux” feminism partnered with consumerist culture push out media representing women’s liberation through a patriarchal gaze\, how can we reclaim the visual language to share more authentic stories? How can our art share the stories of women\, trans women\, and non-binary folks written out of the history books? How does your work give voice to the overlooked and underrepresented?  \nHera Gallery presents 52 works that rewrite this cultural consciousness for a more inclusive human history.” \nI am honored to have two pieces in this salient exhibition\, and participate in a small way\, in Rewriting Her/Our/Their Story.\nWHITE ZIP\n\n \nand \nINTO THE BUSH\n\n \nPlease see the SHOW here.\n

SUMMARY:EXHIBITIONISTA: "The California Effect: New Books  from the California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers"
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled to have three works in:\n“The California Effect: New Books from the California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers”\nOpening at the Long Beach Museum of Art October 4\, 2025 and running through January 4\, 2026!\n\n\n\n\nThe California Effect: New Books from the California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers\n\n\n\n\nOctober 4\, 2025 – March 8\, 2026 \nThe California Effect—New Books from the California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers is rich in both artists and bookworks. There are 29 artists exhibiting 54 books\, boxes\, and broadsides. Some are in limited editions and others are one-of-a-kind. All are handmade individually with handmade and fine papers\, cloth\, thread\, glue\, inks\, and paint. What exactly is the California effect? More precisely\, what is the effect on the many of us who live\, work\, and visit here? The misty mornings and baking hot afternoons? The endless coastline\, chill forests or dry desert arroyos? Each of us has an answer\, seen in the books we make\, in our tastes and inspirations. We turn to making books: printing them\, binding them\, reinventing them\, turning them into art—making books as art. \nThe California Chapter is one of ten chapters\, revealing the national reach and scope of the Guild and its dedication to promoting interest and awareness in the tradition of book and paper arts. The members include hand bookbinders\, design binders\, conservators\, calligraphers\, makers of artist books\, fine press printers and papermakers. A fully illustrated catalogue with information about each artwork and biographical information about each artist is available to order. \nThe California Effect exhibition and related programming are graciously supported by The Kenneth T. and Eileen L. Norris Foundation\, the Pasadena Art Alliance\, and the Bess J. Hodges Foundation \n\nYou can order the beautiful catalogue designed by artist Rebecca Chamlee of Pie in the Sky Press HERE and HERE\n\nAnd… while you are there\, don’t miss:\nVoice of the Artist: Artist Books from the Permanent Collection \n\n\n\nOctober 4\, 2025 – March 8\, 2026 \nThroughout its 75-year history\, the Museum has presented contemporary art in all media\, including the book arts. In 1983\, the Museum organized At Home\, an exhibition that included artists’ books by women created between 1970 and 1983. In 2009\, Novel Constructions—Artists Create Monumental Books explored books as sculptural installations and included works by Genie Shenk and Carol Shaw-Sutton\, both of whom are represented in the Ocean View Gallery. In 2019\, the Museum presented The Artful Book of the California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers\, and it continues this tradition with The California Effect. \nVoice of the Artist highlights a selection of artists’ books from the Museum’s permanent collection. It touches on the history of the medium\, from the livre d’artiste exemplified by Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso\, to contemporary offset-printed codex forms such as Barbara Kruger’s My Pretty Pony. Artists continue to expand the definition of the book through unconventional materials\, like the tar paper in Genie Shenk’s Ring or the carved wood of Suvan Geer’s Author\, Author? Unstill Poetry. The exhibition features a variety of forms\, including traditional codex forms\, accordion books\, and a pop-up sculpture by Paul Johnson. The Museum gratefully acknowledges the generous support of a donor-collector Museum member\, who anonymously provided both the exhibition and the video revealing more of the books’ interiors. \n\n  \n\n\n\n\nLong Beach Museum of Art\n2300 E Ocean Blvd.\n\n\n\n\n\nMember & VIP Opening Reception: 5-7 pm\n\n\n\nGeneral Admission Opening Reception: 7-9 pm
