Abel is one of 29 artists selected from more than 700 entries from the United States and abroad for the 13th annual 6ktiibition, which runs March 3-27 at the Erector Square Gallery in New Haven, Conn. "Women today are pulled in many directions with responsibilities and commitments to their families, jobs, house, clubs, etc. They try to do everything well and that's the prob- lem," says Abel. "Many women can- keep up with this hec- tic pace and are falling apart inside, while trying to keep a calm, pleasant facade externally. This lifestyle per- haps con- tributes to the Barbara Abel: "Panic Attack." phenomenon known as "a panic attack," adds Abel, and she has tried to address it with her hand- printed color print. "The image in Panic Attack is not of a real woman," ays Abel, "but of an antique wax mannequin replica of a woman who lived 100 years ago and is today show- ing the ravages of time." Abel won the curator's choice award at last year's "Women in Visual Arts" exhibi- tion for Perfection, her color print of another antique wax mannequin replica. It made a statement on the perception of 7 '_7-muty in today's society. For more infor- mation, call the gallery, (203) 787-3175. Closer to home, Abel is showing 12 of her hand-printed color photographs depicting characters from Tennyson's Idylls of the King at Flint's Buckham Gallery through March 5.
