SOUTH ORANGE, NJ (PNAN) – Currently on view in the Walsh Gallery at Seton Hall University, is a traveling exhibition, “Matter + Spirit” that features 25 artists from China and North America. The exhibition is the result of a gathering of North American art professors with their Chinese counterparts in the summer of 2018. The participating artists considered issues of art, contemporary society, spirituality and their role as culture makers, critics and interpreters.
Showing is a collection of contemporary artworks in a variety of media that engage the senses of the viewers while presenting a diversity of issues and perspectives. The result is a thought-provoking array of multi-media works that reflect the perennial tensions between the material and spiritual in human life and society.
Gallery Director Jeanne Brasile said, “This exhibition aligns with Seton Hall University’s core values, providing an opportunity to reflect on spiritual and personal development, while providing an access point for global perspectives on important issues.”
Participating artists include: Yefu Bai, Ying Cao, Yuanming Cao, Shin-hee Chin, Wantain Cui, DaoZi, Wei Ding, Scott Fisk, Brenton Good, Xin Guo, Chunye He, Liang Jiang, Sui Kwon, Leah Samuelson, Lauren Schiller, Justin Sorensen, Kenneth Steinback, Laura Stevenson, Meagan Stirling, Ziyun Tong, JoAnn VanReeuwyk, Yongliang Wang, Yong You, Erjun Zhao, and Jiuyang Zhu.
