Tilton Gallery
This event has ended.
Tilton Gallery presents For Life: The Language of Communication, a group show of abstract works by Wallace Berman, Richard Tuttle, Avinash Veeraraghavan, Sudarshan Shetty, Sheela Gowda, and Ruth Vollmer. This exhibition promotes a dialogue among several generations of artists from around the world. For Life: The Language of Communication will be on view at Tilton Gallery [8 East 76th Street] beginning Inauguration Day January 20 through March 28, 2009.

January 20, 2009 will most likely be remembered for the inauguration of our first African-American president. President Obama, often referred to as “The Next Great Communicator,” embodies the energy of now. At this turning point in history, President Obama’s ability to inspire and enlighten through abstract ideas is what really sets him apart from his predecessor. In keeping with the current political paradigm shift, the artworks in For Life: The Language of Communication also employ varying degrees of abstraction to communicate with each other, albeit in unexpected ways.
Art can be seen as an action of communication with its multiplicity of languages for life. This dialogue of positive thought is what this show hopes to address.
