The Anne Reid ’72 Art Gallery at Princeton Day School is pleased to present “YOU are HERE” featuring paintings by current PDS art teacher Karen Stolper and former art faculty Mic Boekelmann. The exhibit will be on view from September 15 through October 8, 2015. There will be an artists’ reception on Friday, September 18 from 4 to 6 p.m., which is free and open to the public.
These two skilled painters have known each other for many years. Before teaching at Princeton Day School, they both exhibited in many of the same venues including the Arts Council of Princeton, Phillips Mill in Bucks County and Ellarslie, the Trenton City Museum. Boekelmann’s portraiture gives the viewer permission to observe her subjects as they are when no one is looking and an opportunity to see their true selves. Stolper’s perspective in painting includes her personal investigation and narrative of overlooked places and structures in her everyday environment.
“YOU are HERE” is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday when the school is in session. For more information call the Art Gallery Director at (609) 924-6700 ext. 1772 or visit pds.org.
