2012-2013 Exhibitions

What We Do:

The heart of Ceres is the exhibition season consisting of solo exhibitions and curated group shows. In addition to its function as a gallery and community network for women artists, Ceres presents a wide range of performances in such areas as music, poetry, and dance. Performance and gallery artists collaborate to curate programs for the season providing an important dialog between different disciplines within the New York community.

September 4 – 29, 2012

Madelon Jones
Facets
Jones’ art employs media from various venues including: embossment, painting, encaustic and collage. She works mostly on handmade and French paper. Although abstract in essence her art has a landscape quality.

Minako Ito
My Favorite

Ito exhibits color lithographs as a visual journal. Her prints represent the small pleasure of daily life. The images range from landscapes to the objects which surround us.


October 2 – October 27, 2012

Sargam Griffin
Integration of Art & Architecture 101: Life, Paintings and ArtDoors(TM)

The exhibition consists of three discrete sets of related work by Griffin as well as the monumental ArtDoors™, the artist’s groundbreaking new painted door series for residential or commercial use in this first solo exhibition by Sargam Griffin at Ceres.

Sara Conklin
Minor Surgery

Minor Surgery revisits the physical and emotional trauma from a broken neck sustained in a horseback riding accident. These works on paper incorporate original pencil drawings with post-operative neck X-rays, creating a juxtaposition of the biomorphic yet mechanical nature of the human spine and the foreign hardware that ultimately hold Conklin’s neck together.


October 30 – November 24, 2012

Perri Neri
Recent Paintings

The torrent of flesh and implied flesh explode figuratively and visually in Neri’s new paintings.
The drama unfolds rich in surface, texture, color, and symbolism.

Ellen Wilkinson
Sculpture: Make to Scale

Tools, pipes, toys and hair are visual resources for Wilkinson’s new stoneware constructions. The artist measures, compresses and simplifies each work into a model which could be made at any scale from pocket-size to public art.


November 27, 2012 – January 3, 2013

Exposure
A unique, rotating exhibition of multiple, one-week, one-person shows bringing the personal vision of a diverse group of artists to Chelsea audiences.

Application is available by clicking here.


January 8 – February 2, 2013

Tania Kravath/Judith Greenwald
Spirit
This collaborative show was sparked by the spirit of a poem and is expressed through wood fired ceramic sculpture and combined media paintings. It is the result of a dialogue between the artists and between each artist and her materials.

Ceres Member Group Show
Meet my Uterus
A response to the War on Women currently being waged by federal, state and local governments: Who would have envisioned the need to fight for contraception in 2012! Our reproductive rights are being eroded. Based on government interference with women’s healthcare decisions, we feel the need to express as artists our concern


February 5 – March 2, 2013

Ann Shapiro
Random Topography
Oil Paintings & Digital
Shapiro continues her exploration of the consequences of climate change on land and sea.

Pat Hill-Cresson
Garden Poetry: The Movable Collographs of Pat Cresson
The exhibit of oil prints on rag paper will present a new lyrical series of boldly colored nature-based collographs and handmade books. In the movable collograph technique, the movable aspect allows for multiple variations and each piece can be inked individually and the movable parts can be repositioned. Prints are created by adding collage items, cut out stencils, relief materials, and printable textures to the surface of the plate.


March 5 – March 30, 2013

H.Hildebrand-Mills
AFLOAT: Installation

Hildebrand-Mills’ solo show features 100 intense and lively works. Hildebrand-Mills’ alchemy of “the times” (endlessly doled out in a frightening haze of doom and gloom) transforms this hopeless delivery into images hanging above land, sea and air, in lovely, sometimes comical, desirable escapes. We are adrift, but not trapped. .

Kiki Kaye
To See it My Way

Kiki Kaye’s  work is a fusion of artistic styles and mediums. The works are a deliberate mix of high and low references, absorbing and reworking such diverse sources as abstract expressionism, futurism, ready-mades and surrealism. The multiple sources are assimilated into a visual language of paintings, assemblages and sculptures that address the relationship between man and technology. With a sense of whimsy and optimism Kaye combines the 'ready-made' electrical circuit boards, fragmented, cast body parts and abstract and neo-expressionist paintings together to create work that embraces technology and our future.

Her work has been included in numerous publications including International Contemporary Masters of 2009, the Artist Advocate where she was selected for the cover of the winter edition 2009 and most recently in the online magazine Fine Art Reviews.  Kaye has exhibited nationally and internationally. Her selected solo and group exhibitions include Chianciano Art Museum, Chianciano, Italy (2012), Galleria Dante, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico  (2011/2012), Quadro Galleria, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (2009), Gallery Casa Rombo, Guadalajara, Mexico (2008), the Cultural Center, Ajijic, Mexico (2008), Galleria Rocher, France (1992) and ; L’exposition International de Genes in Switzerland ( 1992 - where she was awarded the blue ribbon). Her work is currently shown at the following galleries:


Xanadu Gallery, Scottsdale Arizona


Hay Hill Gallery on Cork Street in London.


Ceres Gallery, New York , NY.


April 2 – April 27, 2013

Joyce Parcher
Retrospective

An exhibition of works from the past and the present
perhaps portending the future. These acrylic, figurative, expressionist paintings, like time itself, have evolved but necessarily in a straight line.

Marian Osher
Celebration!

Osher’s mixed-media artwork on canvas celebrates a broad spectrum of textures and colors that stimulate her personal vision. She hopes that viewers will feel tactile and sensory connections to their own experiences.


April 30 – May 25, 2013

Susan Grabel
Venus Comes of Age

Grabel’s cast paper sculptures, collagraph prints and collages explore the reality of the older woman’s
body. Through repetition, humor and classical references, she challenges the conventional biases about the aging female body and validates women’s experiences of themselves.

Judy Werlin
Spontaneous Generation II

The continuation of an exploration of the nature and future of life. Wall sculptures made with mixed materials and photographs.


May 28 – June 22, 2013

Chalda Maloff
Search Engines: New Digital Paintings
This new series of digital paintings is dedicated to our most basic and timeless need: the search for personal insight, clarity, and meaning.  Maloff employs the powerful aesthetic potential of the computer to create images that elicit sensuality, emotion, and spirituality.
