2021 EXHIBITS

Susquehanna Greenway Traveling Photo Gallery

​

Show runs March 31st through April 30th, 2021

The Susquehanna Greenway Partnership has sponsored a photo contest every year since 2012, attracting work by people throughout the 500-mile corridor along the North Branch, West Branch, and main stem of the Susquehanna River -- Pennsylvania's longest and one of the oldest in the world.  The Susquehanna Greenway corridor includes the river itself as well as the parks, trails, and communities that line the river’s banks.  Categories in the 2019 contest included Treasured Landscapes, Treasured River Towns, Susquehanna Adventures, and Bridges; in the 2020 contest (for which Exchange executive director Oren B. Helbok served as one of the jurors), categories included Treasured Landscapes, Treasured River Towns, Susquehanna Adventures, and Wildlife.

In addition to seeing the 2019 and 2020 winners at The Exchange, you can look at each one of them on the Web at susquehannagreenway.org/8th-annual-winners and susquehannagreenway.org/9th-annual-winners.

​

For this show, we will not have an e-commerce page; if you would like to get in touch with any of the photographers to purchase a piece, please do so through the Susquehanna Greenway Partnership, 570-478-0178 or info@SusquehannaGreenway.org.

For information about how to enter the 10th annual contest, visit susquehannagreenway.org/photocontest.

"In Opposition"

​

Show runs February 22nd through March 26th, 2021

This moment in American culture seems to be dominated by oppositional ideas.  People are certain that their ideas are correct, while in complete contradiction to others in their community.  The Exchange Gallery invited artists to make work about opposition: Each artist could make two pieces, or she could team up with someone to between them make two pieces, and the pair would demonstrate some kind of opposition.  The contrast could be conceptual, political, or formal; it couldbe as simple as complementary colors or as complicated as political disagreements.  For the most part, one side of the gallery displays one piece, and on the opposite wall we hung the oppositional piece.  The viewer can stand between the two ideas, picking a side – or not.  The show includes 2-D and 3-D pieces, and as always we encouraged work by artists of ALL ages and levels of experience; "In Opposition" includes work by Bloomsburg University art professors, students, and graduates, and it also includes work by two four-year-olds and a five-year-old -- the four-year-olds now in their third shows here, the five-year-old in his first.

"What I Did In Quarantine"

​

Show runs January 9th through February 19th, 2021

The Exchange Gallery invited artists to submit work that they have made since the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis in early 2020.  We invited all media, 2-D and 3-D, including videos; as always, we encouraged work by artists of ALL ages and levels of experience.  The work may or may not have COVID itself as a theme, but in any event if the artist could tell us the story of how the crisis informed the work, all the better.  More than 50 artists from seven Pennsylvania counties (and the Bronx) responded to the call, with more than 100 pieces; they work in painting, drawing, photography, printmaking, sculpture, digital arts (including video), fibers, and 2-D and 3-D mixed media.  Some of the artists have shown here for years; some have never shown here before -- and at least a couple have never shown their work in any gallery anywhere before.  Some have made art for decades (for one of them, upwards of eight decades); two have not entered kindergarten yet.

Sales have ended, but you can still visit the "Quarantine" e-commerce page, with complete information about each piece; click here.

Our gratitude goes out to ALL of these artists for sharing their work with us; without them, we would have an empty room here -- but with them, because of them, we have the miracle of human creativity to share with YOU.
