Museum/Gallery
Abstract Exhibition
The Janice Charach Eps-
tein Museum/Gallery will
open its 1991-92 exhibition
season with an abstract pain-
ting, drawing and print ex-
hibition entitled "Portraits"
Sept. 26-Oct. 24.
The exhibition will feature
new works by Lynn
Avadenka, Nancy Mitchnick,
Marilyn Schechter and Dale
Sparage. An opening recep-
tion for the artists will be
held 4:30-7:30 p.m. Sept. 26.
The artists explore the idea
of portraiture expressed non-
objectively. The basically
abstract paintings, drawings
and prints have been created
within the past year, and
depict each artist's search for
self in today's confusing
environment.
Lynne Avadenka displays
boxes and monoprints which
raise biblical women's con-
cerns and questions relevant
today.
Nancy Mitchnick's series of
paintings gesturally depict
the artist in a variety of emo-
tional states through the
metaphor of a red table in a
defined space.
Marilyn Schechter presents
feminist investigations with
new paintings on wood and
charcoal drawings, expressing
a subconscious search for the
artist's past.
Dale Sparage exhibits
large-scale paintings and
drawings which expres-
sionistically depict the ques-
tion of a woman's role in to-
day's society.
Accompanying the exhibi-
tion will be an educational
brochure providing the viewer
with biographical informa-
tion of the artists and an
essay by curator Sharon Zim-
merman. Nancy Mitchnick
will provide a lecture on the
reality/unreality of por-
traiture painting and
photography 7:30 p.m. Oct. 8.
There is a charge.
Museum/Gallery patrons may
attend the lecture free of
charge.
An open house for families
is scheduled for 2 p.m. Oct. 13.
To launch the Museum/Gal-
lery's Children's Educational
Programming, parents and
their children are invited to
view the film Please Don't Eat
the Pictures and receive a do-
cent tour of the exhibition.
