The exhibit is one of three shows on view concurrently in the Ben Shahn Galleries. “Prints and Company,” on view in the East Gallery, explores the current direction of various printed matter. On view in the Court Gallery is “Facing Changing Times.” The exhibit, which focuses on how the art created by Jersey City artists reflects their rapidly changing environment, is curated by Sandy DeSando.
This exhibit is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.
