Now at the Prince Street Gallery is Wendy Shalen’s Family Matters, an intimate glimpse into several generations of the artist’s family life revealed through recent drawings, paintings, prints, and handmade paper.
Mark(ing) Time: Works on Paper Invitational is an exhibition of artwork by artists who work strictly on paper. Its aim is to explore the traditional and contemporary ideas of what constitutes drawing and printmaking.
Family Matters: Drawings, Paintings, Prints, Handmade Paper is a solo exhibition of Wendy Shalen’s self-portraits, figurative charcoal and silverpoint drawings, and watercolors.
In the February 2014 issue of Drawing magazine, Jerry Weiss has a review of The Silverpoint Exhibition, a group show curated by Sherry Camhy, which included Wendy Shalen’s Washed Ashore.
Sherry Camhy’s silverpoint drawing Aunt Helen’s Doll is included in the newly published Strokes of Genius 5—The Best of Drawing: Design and Composition.
Sherry Camhy’s silverpoint Innocence, currently on view in the ASL window, appears in Thea Burns’s The Luminous Trace, Drawing and Writing in Metalpoint. “In her carefully rendered full-length portraits,” writes Burns, “Camhy has explored the soft, atmospheric, essentially painterly gradations of tone that metalpoint can produce even in large-scale images.”
