BYGERLADINE KIEFER
Geraldine Kiefer: Icelandic and Archipelagic Encounters. October 1–28; Opening Reception, October 1, Barns of Rose Hill, Berryville. Geraldine Kiefer, Ph. D., is a professor of art at Shenandoah University with a focus on American art, feminist theory, and the history of photography. Of this exhibit she says: “The work is at the same time tactile, colorful, historical, imaginative, and geographical as it comprises digital reproductions and hand-drawn artifacts that resemble, but do not in any way replicate, maps from ancient, Renaissance, Enlightenment, and modern (i.e. nineteenth-century) civilizations. The goal of the work, which continues as an evolving series, is to meld the physical, diagrammatical, and the spiritual in sparkling, colorful, and, yes, dark mixtures that take the viewer on journeys only he or she can imagine until something magical and mysterious occurs.”
