Local artists are taking their shows on the road like crazy this summer. Here’s a couple more:
The island Manhattan
Richard Ryan, whose cinematic urban love-knot digital print was one of the many excellent pieces at the Arcadia Works on Paper show this year, will be showing another piece in the same series at Viridian Gallery’s 17th National Juried Exhibition, July 6-26. Ryan was one of 26 artists selected from more than 2,500 submissions by curator Robert Rosenblum of the Guggenheim Museum.
Island of tropical breezes
Philadelphia artist Gerard Silva will show two of his abstract photographs in San Juan, Puerto Rico, at the Museum of Contemporary Art. The exhibit, New Voices in Photography, will be on display from June 9 until August 13. Gerard will also be participating in an upcoming group show, Boobies (10 percent of sales will go to the Linda Creed Breast Cancer Foundation) at Falling Cow Gallery in Philadelphia starting the 22nd of July.
