Founded in 1983, as a program of the New York Feminist Art Institute, Ceres is a not-for-profit artist run organization dedicated to the promotion of contemporary women in the arts. The gallery exhibits a broad spectrum of high quality work each year within a community of women artists that includes national and international members.
Ceres serves as a supportive base for a diversity of artistic and political views. We have become a venue for female and male writers, musicians, dancers and storytellers to perform and take risks. We believe that the arts provide an important social service with their power to enhance and enrich the quality and depth of our lives. - Stefany Benson, Director

Gallery I
INSTALLATION #547-2010 is the ninth exhibition in a series of large-scale site-specific Window Installations, which feature collections of salvaged double-hung sash windows originating from nineteenth and early twentieth-century buildings located in the New York City metropolitan area. The Window Installation Series continues its evolution as a provocative aesthetic platform for engaging public awareness to the preservation issues surrounding the loss of these rare architectural elements.

February 2 - February 27, 2010
Wilkinson's new ceramic vessels look to the history of clothing design for both form and detailing. As an outgrowth of her interest in art history, she researched images from history and came up with a bowl that looks like a Dutch collar from an Old Masters painting and a double-walled vase in the shape of Hamlet's Sleeve.
