The exhibition Three presents a captivating showcase of artwork by Delaware artists Hannah Whiddon, Guy Miller, and Stephanie Boateng, each bringing a distinct voice and perspective to the collective experience.<\/p>\n

Hannah Whiddon\u2019s artwork immerses the audience in a world of organic forms and fluid lines. Through her dynamic compositions, she explores the connection between nature and the human experience, encouraging reflection on growth and\n transformation.<\/p>\n

Her bold use of color and mixed media reflects her personal heritage, inviting dialogue about the complexities of navigating multiple identities in\n today’s world. Her work emphasizes resilience and belonging, creating a space for shared narratives.<\/p>\n

Together, Three creates a rich tapestry of artistic expression, highlighting the diverse voices and experiences of these three talented artists.

The Journey of Perspective<\/em> celebrated the long and vibrant artistic journey of self-taught artist, Edward Loper II. This exhibition shared the significance of Loper\u2019s prolific contributions to visual arts while simultaneously permitting the viewer access to Loper\u2019s unique perspectives and vision.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf I can draw it, I can build it. I do things to make people look.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The ACG presented <\/span>Edward Loper II: The Journey of Perspective <\/em><\/strong>\n October 3 \u2013 November 18, 2022 with an artist reception on Friday, October 7, 2022.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

Delaware native Edward Loper II is a self-taught artist whose commitment to creative exploration has led to artistic success over the past five decades. Since the early 1960s, Loper’s work has been featured in numerous national exhibitions, cultural events, and publications, as well as the prestigious Barnes Foundation. His paintings are collected not only by private collectors, but corporate art collections such as the Wilmington Trust, BlueCross, Christiana Care, and the Delaware Trust. <\/span><\/p>\n

Loper taught art, photography, and woodworking at Wilmington High School in the 1960s. He also provided instruction in art, pottery and sculpture at the West End Neighborhood House and Kingwood Center. In the 1970’s he headed the Visual Arts Department at Christiana Cultural Arts Center and attended the Barnes Foundation in Merlon, PA.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Journey of Perspective <\/em>shared the significance of Loper\u2019s prolific contributions to visual arts while simultaneously permitting the viewer access to Loper\u2019s unique perspectives and vision. This exhibition also represented the bond of father and son as Loper\u2019s son, Jamie, curated this exhibition with a loving commitment to his father\u2019s contributions to the world of art.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOne year ago, I was offered an incredible opportunity to show the treasures of my father Edward Loper II. With this opportunity, Shameka Jones and I co-curated the most revealing exhibition my father and his work have ever had. Thirty original paintings accompanied by technical drawings, sculptures and carvings will lovingly display examples of this great Journey of Perspective that my father has lived. <\/em>\n I would like to give a special thank you to Jennifer Gunther, Director of the Arts Center\/Gallery at Delaware State University, for her unwavering commitment to making this special occasion possible.<\/em> -Jamie Loper<\/span><\/p>\n

The Journey of Perspective exhibition was further defined through the following virtual videos and virtual exhibition:<\/p>\n

–A Tour of the Journey of Perspective with Jamie Loper.<\/p>\n

–An Artist Discussion between Mr. Loper and Jamie Loper with a focus on specific works in the exhibition.<\/p>\n

Points of Juxtaposition\n
VirtuaL exhibition<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n \n \n
\n

Points of Juxtaposition began in 2008 when a group of African-American artists came together for a dynamic presentation of art. Like the points of a compass, each artist represents their unique perspective of life in America and from an older African consciousness. The artists of Points of Juxtaposition direct their brushes, styles, camera lenses and digital tools at the social ills, beauty, and history of African Americans in this country.<\/span><\/p>\n
