Now through April 8, "PMS" is
on display inside the Brooklyn War Memorial.
The exhibition of artworks – rather than the bloating or mood
swings – of "women Painters, Musicians and Sculptors"
is a stunningly diverse show.
Among the more than 40 artists whose work is on display are Kristen
Benson’s "TV 2004," a vintage television console with
an ant farm – filled with bustling sand harvester ants – behind
its screen (pictured), as well as Chanika Svetvilas’ diorama
of flowers formed from fast food wrappers inset into suitcases,
and Carmen Hay Kolodzey’s hand-painted textiles which hang above
the stage in the exhibition hall.
"PMS," inside the memorial at 195 Cadman Plaza West
in Downtown Brooklyn, is presented by the Brooklyn College Art
Gallery in collaboration with the Brooklyn Arts Council, South
of the Navy Yard Artists and the Brooklyn Waterfront Artists
Coalition. Admission is free. For more information, call (718)
951-5181.
