Curated by Doris Cacoilo, director of _gaia studio in Jersey City and acting director of NJCU campus galleries, and Sonali Sridhar Interaction Designer and Cofounder of Hackruiter. The Learning Agency, will feature individual works by NYC artists: Sharon de la Cruz, Katya Grokhovsky, Kathleen Kranack; Hannah Kirshner, Sonia Louise Davis and Salome Asega. And NJ artists: Linda Hu of Berkely Heights; Cristine Posner of Point Pleasant and Meredith Goncalves of Highland Park.<\/p>\n

The exhibit will feature multimedia projects that the artists created during _gaia\u2019s seventh annual Wonder Women Residency. The six-week residency explored the opportunity of redefining the future of global economies by focusing on education, literacy, and the empowerment of women and had the artists reflect on the power of women’s agency in communities and economies. The resulting projects address the possibilities for global change with women at the center of learning, health, governance, and public and private spaces.<\/p>\n

Meredith Goncalves and the collaboration of Sonia Louise Davis and Salome Asega present portraiture as empowerment. Hannah Kirshner and Katya Grokhovsky use performance and video to explore gender roles, personal journeys and identity. Christine Posner explores authorship in her work in which she creates a collaboration and exhibition with Geraldine Posner, a photographer during WWII, who was presented with challenges to continue a photography career as a woman in the middle of the century. Sharon de la Cruz uses graffiti to teach the audience about the immense strength of women of color. Linda Hu and Kathleen Kranack have created drawings to present history, female identity and women\u2019s stories.<\/p>\n

A special, hand-made, limited edition catalog created by the artists and curators will be available at the gallery.<\/p>\n

The Wonder Women residency is hosted annually at _gaia\u2019s Jersey City studio. In 2011 the residency expanded to include an international summer project that traveled to Cyprus last year and will be traveling to Brazil this summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
