  • Glyphadelphia Press Release
    HESSE FLATOW Glyphadelphia Organized by Carl D’Alvia April 29–May 29 Opening Reception: April 29, 5–8PM by appointment Inquiries: info@hesseflatow.com HESSE FLATOW is pleased to present “Glyphadelphia,” an intergenerational group exhibition organized by sculptor Carl D’Alvia of artists who use different variations of a glyph—ancient hieroglyphics, a question mark, shapes, icons and symbols—as a departure for their work. The exhibition features works by thirty-five artists spanning sculpture, painting, drawing, and collage. The works are loosely grouped into five categories, each representing different definitions of the glyph: the ancient glyph, the body, alphabet and code, geometric and minimalist, and abstracted landscape. Figures in Catherine Haggarty’s work recall Egyptian hieroglyphs of various birds, while Carolyn Salas, Drea Cofield and Amy Pleasant employ repetitive motifs of the human body in their works. Glendalys Medina and Mira Dayal explore the use of abstracted alphabetic characters; Chris Bogia, Matthew Fisher, and Kalina Winters distill compositions down to geometric "Utopian" shapes. Emily Kiacz and Beverly Fishman utilize shaped canvases, inevitably repurposing iconography seen throughout corporate marketing campaigns—and John Dilg’s post-apocalyptic landscape recalls Philip Guston’s glyph-inspired canvases. The glyph has been a subject and inspiration for many artists over the years including Martin Wong, Ray Yoshida, Alina Szapocznikow, Judith Bernstein, Philip Guston, Elizabeth Murray and Deborah Kass. Glyphadelphia—which features artists aged 25 to 76—explores artists’ ongoing interest in using history as a playground, and bridging the gap between ancient and contemporary art. This show presents a catalogue of the different modalities of symbolic communication in use by contemporary artists and how this iconic mode of communication is constantly being adapted in innovative and diverse ways.

In partnership with the non-profit Alabama Civil Rights Tourism Association and in support of local businesses and communities, Orbridge invites you to experience the people, places, and events igniting change and defining a pivotal period for America that continues today. Dive deeper beyond history's headlines to the newsmakers, learning from actual foot soldiers of the struggle whose vivid and compelling stories bring a history of unforgettable tragedy and irrepressible triumph to life. Dear Alumni and Friends, Join us for an intimate and essential opportunity to explore the Deep South with an informative program that highlights America’s civil rights movement in Alabama. Historically, perhaps no other state has played as vital a role, where a fourth of the official U.S. Civil Rights Trail landmarks are located. On this five-day journey, discover sites that advanced social justice and shifted the course of history. Stand in the pulpit at Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. preached, walk over the Edmund Pettus Bridge where law enforcement clashed with voting rights marchers, and gather with our group at Kelly Ingram Park as 1,000 or so students did in the 1963 Children’s Crusade.
