Four Generations
Four Generations at the Amity Gallery
Saturday January 7 – Saturday January 14
This exhibition has been organized by Judy Duboff and RyyA Bread to commemorate and celebrate four generations of creative visual ‘generation’ by women in their maternal line: Grace Epstein (aka Meema) (born 1894), Elizabeth Duboff (born 1919), Judy Duboff (born 1945) and RyyA. Bread (born 1970).
“An eclectic collection of artwork made at various times in our respective lives. It is our desire to hang this work together and to share the creative threads that run through four individuals who have overlapping and overlaid experiences of place and family; and have been influenced and loved by one another.”
This exhibition is not put forward as examples of refined, finished or accomplished fine art – but rather as a testimony to the value of creative ‘generation’ in one’s life. What this work shows is an interest in using art to celebrate and commemorate significant places, relationships and events – where this interest has been nurtured, sustained and gained momentum as it has been passed through four generations. As such, it can be seen as a familial work in progress spanning over 100 years…
