SUMMARY:Jeanette May: Tech Vanitas
DESCRIPTION:Jeanette May’s Tech Vanitas still life photographs embrace the anxiety surrounding technological obsolescence. As widely observed\, we live in an age filled with devices that make domestic life faster\, easier\, and more complicated. Consumers choose from an astounding number of tech products. The more we yearn to keep current—the smartest watch\, camera\, speaker\, computer\, phone—the more we produce\, consume\, and discard. Cutting-edge technology becomes outdated\, embarrassing\, collectible\, and finally\, antiquated or forgotten. \n  \nMay’s photographs cleverly reference 17th Century Dutch vanitas (still life paintings) and their air of craft guilds\, international trade\, and personal wealth. At the same time\, her carefully disheveled compositions of stylish objects allude to product photography and advertising imagery. From vintage clocks to virtual reality headsets\, the assembled gadgets suggest the passing of time. Finally\, these photographs reflect a nostalgia for anachronistic technology and a desire for the latest enchanted objects. \nJeanette May received her MFA in Photography from CalArts and her BFA in Painting from the University of Illinois. She has received awards from the NEA Regional Artists’ Projects Fund\, New York City Department of Cultural Affairs\, Illinois Arts Council\, Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts\, and Ms. Foundation. Her work is exhibited internationally. May lives in Brooklyn\, NY.

SUMMARY:Victory for a Dime: The Fighting Comic Books of the Second World War
DESCRIPTION:Comic books as we know them arrived during he hungry days of The Great Depression\, peddled by would-be entrepreneurs struggling to survive. In 1938\, the fledgling enterprise suddenly became an industry when Superman appeared on the cover of the first issue of Action Comics. In September 1939\, when the Second World War officially began\, they exploded. By the time the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor\, popular titles were outselling mainstream magazines such as Time and The Saturday Evening Post\, children and adults were thrilling to the exploits of a colorful parade of new superheroes\, and the star-spangled Captain America had become a national symbol. Victory for a Dime: The Fighting Comic Books of the Second World War showcases the vibrant\, often shocking cover images that exemplified the comic book industry throughout the war years\, and helped comics cement an everlasting place in American popular culture. \nMark Fertig is the founder of the graphic design program and chair of the Department of Art + Design at Susquehanna University in Selinsgrove\, PA. He’s the author of Take That Adolf! The Fighting Comic Books of the Second World War and Film Noir 101: The 101 Best Film Noir Posters from the 1940s and 1950s\, both from Fantagraphics Books. His current book project is Hang ‘Em High: 100 Years of Western Movie Posters. \nMarch 19: Lecture by Mark Fertig\, 5 pm; Reception to follow\, 6 – 7 pm – see website for location.\nClosed April 12

SUMMARY:Sarah Nguyen: Gathering the Names
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Thursday\, January 23\, 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. Gallery Talk 5:30 p.m. \nSarah Nguyen uses a balance of abstract and representational forms to sever the connection between shape and meaning\, connecting the viewer instead to the cut of the knife\, so that s/he becomes complicit in the art.  Folklore\, reverence\, refinement of nature\, and observance of daily life are the concepts behind her work. \nUsing folklore as the source of artistic inspiration\, Nguyen attempts to temporarily return the viewer to a state of childhood: dwelling in the senses\, immersed in the images of stories\, experiencing the primacy of the physical. Whether the viewer seeks mental liberation or sensory indulgence is a matter of significance for them. She is less interested in directing their conclusions as she is in revealing them. The desired effect of this body of work upon the viewer is self-investigation. \nNguyen is a multimedia artist. She received her BFA in illustration from Rhode Island School of Design and her MFA in painting from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia.

SUMMARY:Jeff Repko: In Proximity
DESCRIPTION:Jeff Repko creates assemblages that explore potential and possibilities through interactions of color and forms. Born in Pittsburgh\, PA after deindustrialization\, his work explores notions of industry and the stories he heard growing up. Never truly having experienced the industrial era in the Pittsburgh\, he feels both a distance and closeness to it. His work is a personal attempt to experience and create the physical objects\, optimism\, and a sense of community. \nTime\, technology\, and color have become a lens distorting the work. His practice evokes a sense of serious play as the sculptures and paintings use color to reinvigorate and turn these analog tools and machinery into playful toy-like assemblages. These assemblages exist both in digital and physical space juxtaposing the boundless possibilities of a synthetic world in the limitations of a physical presence. Through the forms’ implied potential and the colors’ inherent optimism\, he asks the viewers to envision possibilities. \nJeff Repko received his MFA in sculpture from the University of Wisconsin – Madison and BFA from Penn State. He is currently an assistant professor of sculpture at the University of North Georgia. His work has been shown nationally in both gallery and public art environments. \nThis exhibition is the first in the Material Matters series that focuses on Pennsylvania’s industrial and manufacturing history through art and art materials. Artists working with traditional materials such as steel\, wood\, paper\, or fiber\, as well as current and future materials\, such as plastics\, glass\, or electronics\, will be featured in the series which includes an artist residency\, workshops\, and other programs.\nVisit gallery.pct.edu for workshops scheduled November 5 – 8\, 2019. \nReception: Thursday\, November 7\, 2019\, 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. with gallery talk at 5:30 p.m.

SUMMARY:Michael Hower: Graffiti Scapes
DESCRIPTION:Michael Hower’s digital photographs are founded upon a fascination with abandoned buildings and landscapes. He photographs ghost towns and spaces consumed by graffiti such as Centralia\, Pennsylvania. This  ghost town sits atop a burning mine fire\, and the main road leading into town is covered with colorful tags and philosophical tidbits for three quarters of a mile: the infamous ‘Graffiti Highway.’ \nHower travels around the Mid-Atlantic to ghost towns\, skate parks\, train graveyards\, city alleys and wherever else graffiti dominates the landscape. Included in the exhibition will be a new photographic installation\, Concrete City\, which was inspired by the Pennsylvania ghost town which was abandoned in 1924.
