Pentimenti presents Lines are marked, yet we are all outsiders, a group exhibition featuring 10 artists from across Pennsylvania. As the United States marks its 250th anniversary, the exhibition celebrates the Commonwealth's artistic community while reflecting on Pennsylvania's cultural landscape through a contemporary lens.
Bringing together artists from diverse backgrounds and across generations, Lines are marked, yet we are all outsiders explores the boundaries- geographic, social, political and personal, that shape our understanding of place and belonging today. While Pennsylvania occupies a central place in the nation's history, the exhibition reflects on how identity is continually formed through individual experience. Collectively, these works present a multifaceted portrait of contemporary artists living in Pennsylvania, revealing the many perspectives that coexist within a shared region.
To accompany the exhibition, each artist has been invited to contribute a written reflection on their work, providing insight into the ideas, experiences, and questions that inform their artistic practice.

A collaboration with The Philadelphia Museum of Art & Mural Arts
|
The Philadelphia Museum of Art collaborated with Mural Arts Philadelphia to highlight the work of contemporary Philadelphia artists related to the critically acclaimed exhibition Matisse in the 1930s. The museum commissioned five local artists to create five murals over five weeks.
Inspired by visiting Matisse together and discussing it in the galleries with exhibition curator Matthew Affron, the artists documented their creative processes and met with Affron to view the original creations that resulted from the visit. A video series documenting their work can be found on the museum’s social channels as well as www.philamuseum.org. My mural can be see on Ludlow at 12th street in Center City Philadelphia. |
