Artist Talk w/painter Deborah Pohl – Unclassical: Contemporary Still Lifes
September 4, 2022 @ 12:00 am
We are pleased to announce a livesteamed Artist Talk on Friday, September 9 at 7pm with painter Deborah Pohl. Tune in and chat as Deborah is interviewed by Museum Director Bob Foster on our YouTube channel here or on Facebook here. This Artist Talk is in advance of the Museum’s new Upper Gallery exhibit “Unclassical: Contemporary Still Lifes by Deborah Pohl,” which opens Sunday, September 11 with an opening reception at 2pm.
Deborah Pohl was awarded a 2022 Fellowship for painting from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. Her work has been shown in dozens of solo and group shows for over 30 years. Of this latest series, she says, “My paintings occupy the category of still life while working against the genre’s expectations. Classic still life objects, like fruit and drapery, are combined with overlooked and often discarded relics of our everyday lives. I use traditional oil painting methods in order to beautify the ignored and mundane.” www.deborahpohl.com/
