CURATOR'S STATEMENT
 
These five women artists have focused their gaze and their creative attention on their personal vision of family.  Each offers the viewer the privilege of a glimpse into unique aspects of their own family. Tira Kahn presents us with authentic moments of her own girls as they grow up before her eyes as Suzanne Revy has done with her two boys.  Astrid Reischwitz brings a fading way of life in Germany into the present day with her triptychs. Molly Lamb reaches into the past and reveals the inner layers of loss and transformation that often comes with family, as does Zoe Perry-Wood’s work focusing on the loss of a legacy and the relationship of family and summer on the waters edge. 
 
I put together this exhibition for many reasons, including because I admire each of these women artist’s work. As I explore creating a body of work of my own family, I look to other artists for inspiration. Examining my own family as a subject was inspired by the strong family bonds of my wife’s extended family and has brought me closer to my own family This exhibition was originally exhibited at The Galley @First Parish Lexington during the occasion of my wife Lisa’s ordainment as a Unitarian Universalist Minister.  Lisa lives family as a primary value more than anyone I know. This current exhibition is being held while she is being installed as the settled Senior Minister at First Parish in Brookline.
