SMALL TALK
March 2 - March 23, 2018
Seraphin Gallery and The Center for Emerging Visual Artists (CFEVA) are excited to announce a joint POP-UP exhibition hosted by Seraphin Gallery entitled Small Talk. Carefully curated by Alyssa Laverda and Ashley Stahl, this group selection of CFEVA and Seraphin Gallery artists introduces a banter between individual works based on visual relationships and artistic concepts. These pieces are sometimes grouped and juxtaposed together for their humorous and tongue-in-cheek quips, concept-driven and contextual narratives, or associations in their formal qualities of line, shape, light, and color across a wide range of artistic media.
Presented solely in small format, the works possess a preciousness that speak in the form of intricate detail and delicate handling.Small Talk is a give and take, not only between Seraphin Gallery and CFEVA, but also between diverse artists from a variety of different cultural backgrounds, established and emerging, from Philadelphia and beyond.

Michael Morrill: Déjà Vu Blue
May 12 June 26, 2017
Seraphin Gallery presents a solo exhibition, titled Déjà Vu Blue, featuring paintings, prints, and sculpture by Michael Morrill. The opening reception for the show will be held at the gallery on Friday, May 12, from 6 - 8 PM. This event is free and open to the public. Déjà Vu Blue will be on view until June 26.
Michael Morrill's most recent body of work explores the essence of déjà vuand repetition through a minimalist geometric lens, where reflection and lushness play an integral part. In exploring the holy and luxurious artistic traditions of pairing blue and gold, Morrill's works become a platform to contemplate the connection from antiquity to present day-- citing specific ideologies and correlations through the spheres of religious dogmas, biblical anecdotes, and deep space scientific inquiry. What is it about the qualities of gold and blue that bring us closer to, or feel on the verge of, a liminal space?
