After two months at the Dominican School Gallery (January 26-March 20), Picturing Paradise moved on to the Muscarelle Museum of Art at the College of William and Mary where it was on display from April 7 – May 17.
In June 2009, GTU doctoral student and curator of the exhibit, Rebecca Berru Davis was in Lima, Peru doing research and fieldwork. While there, the exhibit was displayed at the Miraflores Community Gallery (June 5-7). This was carried out with the help of Fundades and ConVida, two organizations who collaborate in assisting the women. During its three day venue, over 600 persons viewed the exhibit. The women artists from the shantytown of Pamplona Alta were honored at the opening reception held on Friday evening, June 5.
Picturing Paradise will be exhibited at Chabot Community College Gallery in Hayward, California from October 8- November 5, 2009. The opening reception is scheduled for the evening of October 8 from 5-7pm. For more information about the exhibit, please contact Rebecca Berru Davis berrumt@yahoo.com or:
