Artist Talk
Pareidolia: Ideas Paradise
Please join us for a panel discussion with Jenny Kanzler, Glenn Goldberg, Paul Loughney,
Celeste Morton, Pol Morton, Hanna Von Goeler; moderated by Jeffrey Morabito
What Pareidolia means to each artist will be explored, and how it is connected to the greater
concept of an “Ideas Paradise.”
Curated by Jeffrey Morabito
Featuring Michael Berryhill, Marybeth Chew, Martin Dull, Glenn Goldberg, Alissa Guzman, Jenny Kanzler, Paul Loughney, Jeffrey Morabito, Celeste Morton, Pol Morton, Jackie Shatz
Hanna Von Goeler
“What he had really wanted to do was to tear a hole in his world and escape.” -Vladimir Nabokov, Signs and Symbols.
pareidolia. noun. par· ei· do· lia ˌper-ˌī-ˈdōl-ē-ə, -ˈdōl-yə : the tendency to perceive a specific, often meaningful, image in a random or ambiguous visual pattern. A faulty form. A wrong shape.
Anxiety. Fear. Inertia. These are common emotions we experience in a world of perpetual motion plagued by vague uncertainty and acute isolation. Yet in our collective imagination, there is a hidden place where we go for refuge; an idiosyncratic paradise, where ideas are planted in memories and nurtured by experiences. Every so often we pluck an idea from this garden and bring it into reality, and for a brief moment the world stops spinning. The wrong thing in the wrong place becomes the right idea.
As we try to locate ourselves, be it through corporeality or a digital space, the artists in this show redefine the quotidian world through “Pareidolia” with painting, sculpture, photography and collage. Exploring the realm of paranoid disinformation, anamorphic creatures, distorted reflections, and pop dystopias, they face the world through vulnerability.

The quality that we call beauty, however, must always grow from the realities of life, and our ancestors, forced to live in dark rooms, presently
came to discover beauty in shadows, ultimately to guide shadows towards beauty’s ends. ― Jun'ichirō Tanizaki, In Praise of Shadows
Please join us on Saturday, February 29th, with artists Susan M B Chen, Jeffrey Morabito, and Homer Shew,
moderated by Chantal Lee for a conversation on how Chinese artistic traditions influence contemporary art and thought today.

Glossolalia: How Travel Galvanizes Creativity
1 Gap Gallery, One Grand Army Plaza
Sunday, April 14th, 3pm.
RVSP: Ana Delgado, anadelgado60@yahoo.com
A discussion moderated by Hyperallergic contributor, Danny Larkin, with artist Jeffrey Morabito, Fran O'Neill, Benjamin Pritchard, and Beatrice Scaccia.
When performer/vocalist Meredith Monk would explain how to sing, she said that you need to imagine yourself in a spaceship leaving the planet, and that you're trying to shout back to earth. That way the only things that can be heard are the loudest and simplest things.
This panel explores those things that become meaningful to us during the experience of living and working abroad.
