NWAA Presents: WANDERLUST

The NWAA presents:
wanderlust
September 3rd - 23rd

Please join us for the Opening Reception of wanderlust at the Chris White Gallery at Shipley Lofts this Friday, September 10th from 6-10pm.


(Lauren Caulk)

The concepts of "home", "place" and "destination" are explored through the diverse works of 11 American photographers from Philadelphia, Wilmington, New York City, Boston, Providence, Johnstown and Puerto Rico. Presented in the recently christened Shipley Lofts artist community in Wilmington, De, this exhibition offers a broad visual dialogue regarding how we envision, experience and create our sense of "home", in a venue discovering its own identity through its inhabitants.

Live musical performances by Technological Epidemic, The One and Only Matt Miller and members of the My Idea Of Fun collective (Johnstown, Pa) will highlight the Art-Loop re:fresh reception held from 9-10pm at the Chris White Gallery. Collectible artist books from many of the exhibitors will be available for purchase at the reception.



(Andrew Maydoney)

As part of wanderlust Boston-based artist Andrew Maydoney has installed Way-Finding, a traveling full-scale authentic Mongolian-built yurt, housing massive original cycloramic images of its temporary home, in Willingtown Square at the Delaware Historical Society & Museum, Wilmington, Delaware. We encourage visitors to come early to see this naturally lit piece before the evening light fades.
