Explore Religious Text in Contemporary Art at the Gershman Y in Philadelphia

ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
Nicholas Kripal, "Lust," 2013
PENNSYLVANIA---The gallery at Philadelphia's The Gershman Y explores the use of religious text in contemporary art, from the straightforward to the ironic. Nicholas Kripal (Philadelphia) will install one of his word-based floor pieces; Carole P. Kunstadt (West Hurley, NY) will offer book arts-based work that draws from the Hebrew Bible. Other artists will add to this broad range of media and approaches including Sandow Birk, Johanna Bresnick, Michael Cloud Hirschfeld, Stephanie Kirk, and David Stephens. The exhibition opens on January 22 and runs through May 14, 2015.

The Gershman Y is an arts and culture center located in Center City Philadelphia. The Gershman Y traces its origins back to the Young Men’s Hebrew Association (YMHA), originally formed in 1875 to serve as a cultural, educational, and social meeting place for the Jewish community. In September 2009, The Gershman Y separated from the Jewish Community Centers of Greater Philadelphia, of which The Gershman Y had been a constituent site, and became an independent organization.
