Transformed Realities | Hammond Museum and Japanese Stroll Garden

A solo exhibition by artist and filmmaker Rosalind Schneider
Hays Gallery
On View: April 25 – June 16, 2018

This exhibit features the art of one of New York’s famed artists, whose work is in the permanent collection of MoMA in Manhattan. She is considered as one of the first important avant-garde women filmmakers, and her artistic films are currently being restored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. This exhibit offers a short glimpse of her life’s work spanning many decades. The artist Rosalind Schneider states, “This exhibit is a personal voyage into nature is the core of the work that transcends boundaries. Expanding the source of inspiration through layered manifestation of realities binds paintings, drawings and video. Although photography, both moving and still, serves as a primary instrument in the gathering of images, the realization of the work becomes complete through the abstraction of elements.” Her powerfully expressive vision is transformative and transcendental of mediums, merging techniques and perceptions, presenting a truly original and unique exhibit. Her impacting work compels attention and impresses a timeless quality. Even the pieces she finished decades ago are as current as if they were completed just yesterday.
