The Woodmere Annual: 75th Juried Exhibition

The Condition of Place

June 4 – August 28, 2016

Odili Donald Odita, juror

Closing Reception Sunday, August 28, 2016| 2:00-4:00 p.m.

From 448 entries, Odita has selected 70 artists from the Philadelphia region. In addition to selections made from submissions, Odita has included his own work and has placed on view Edith Neff’s Swimming Pool at Hunting Park(1977) from the Museum’s collection.

This year’s theme, The Condition of Place, brings a new and unique element to the exhibition.  Inspired in part by the diversity and vital view of Philadelphia’s urban fabric in Neff’s painting, Odita asked artists to define “condition” broadly; “place” refers to the city of Philadelphia. The chosen artists have used a wide variety of media to express both the theme of the show and how it relates to them in the authenticity that is Philadelphia. Woodmere’s mission is to tell the story of the art and artists of Philadelphia.  This show tells the stories of 70 artists and their city of Philadelphia in very different, yet sometimes very related ways.
