The Immortals
May 17 – June 29, 2013
The Salisbury
University Art Galleries Downtown Campus (120 N.
Division Street)
Reception: Friday, May 17, 5-8 pm
A solo show of works by local artist Jessica Cross
Davis. Her paintings explore the permeable boundary
between realism and abstraction through the manipulation
of a familiar medium: portrait painting.
Her
portraits of young men and women play with light,
projections, symbolism and painterly technique to show
what she calls the “universal dichotomy between strength
and vulnerability. The works address the notion that we
are, as human beings, the only species on earth
conscious of both love and ambition who have
an inexorable expiration date.”
Davis has been creating and displaying art for more than
10 years. She earned her M.F.A. from the Pennsylvania
Academy of the Fine Arts in 2007 and has had several
solo exhibitions throughout the mid-Atlantic. She also
has sold works internationally. She teaches painting,
drawing, design and printmaking in SU’s Art Department.
Campus
This Land
July 22 – September 7, 2013
University Gallery
Closing Reception: September 7, 4:00pm
The lyrics to the beloved Woody Guthrie song, “This
land was made for you and me,” present an assumption
about our natural world, primarily that it is there to
serve man. In turn, the land is “made” by us through
altering ecosystems, extracting resources, and
agriculture. The work of the different artists presented
in this exhibition explore man’s relationship with
nature, presenting nuanced views of how the land (and
sea) are shaped both physically and figuratively by
human activities.
