In the Gallery - Exhibitions

Pyramid Atlantic mines the heights of the astral plains, the depths of humanity’s earthly existence, and the joy of youthful creation within a framework of prints and handmade paper on exhibition from December 2nd to January 24th, 2009 in its Main Gallery.

The Sky Is NOT the Limit features artworks by Denise Bookwalter, Helen Glazer, Walt Goettman, and Elzbieta Sikorska as selected by Guest Curator, Félix Ángel curator of the Inter-American Development Bank’s Cultural Center in Washington, DC. The vibrant works curated by Mr. Angel for Pyramid Atlantic’s Main Gallery, all share an intriguing fascination with the sky and arranged together are a celebration and investigation of life and its extremes.

Grade features the work of Pyramid Atlantic Resident Keyholder Leah Frankel in Pyramid Atlantic’s Kunst Vault Project Space. The site specific paper installation deftly captures the transition between the comfort and ease of naivety and the exposed harshness of knowledge.

The opening reception is on Saturday, December 6 from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm. An Artist Talk will be held for the public at 6:30 pm.

Pyramid Atlantic offers fully equipped studios for papermaking, etching, lithography, relief, screen-printing, letterpress, and digital printing. Keyholder residency opportunities support artists who have an interest in printmaking, papermaking and book arts and whose talent deserves to be recognized. The artists provide their own materials. Keyholder resident artists work within the schedule of workshops and scheduled studio activities. They are enriched by the supportive, creative community comprised of artist-staff, interns, other visiting artists, and the public.
