MFA Alumni Solo Exhibition at New Washington, DC Art Gallery

.
Log in to post comments

The Silva Gallery x Latela Curatorial announce the exhibition Moments of Grace by Anne Marchand (MFA, 1975). This will be the first exhibition at the new Adam’s Morgan Art Gallery in Washington, DC.

Moments of Grace by Anne Marchand invites us on a journey, an exploration in self-discovery and healing, for ourselves, and for our communities. 

First inspired by photographs of galaxies and nebulae seen through the Hubble telescope, Marchand’s paintings suggest a connection between deep space and inner space of the human body. Her work recalls images seen from low orbit space, looking through portals, seeing patterns and rhythms of earth’s natural forces. Through art, she addresses our role as citizens on a planetary paradise and how the human race moves forward in time, visualizing from a big picture perspective while operating on a local earthly level.

Marchand’s exhibition comes at a timely moment to remind us not to forget some of the subtle, self-connective lessons that the pandemic taught us. As we “go back to normal” and extend ourselves outwards into society again, Moments of Grace offers an intimate refuge to come back to center and brings forward concepts of unity, time, perspective, impermanence and the sublime.

Marchand was born in New Orleans. She majored in art at Auburn University, graduating with a BA, and then earned an MFA from the University of Georgia. Her early artistic focus was the figure, and she was especially drawn to the work of Francis Bacon for his expressive paintings of the human body. Marchand has exhibited her work extensively in solo exhibitions at Zenith Gallery, Washington, DC; Montgomery College, Silver Spring, MD; Green Chalk Contemporary, Monterey, CA; Morris Museum of Art, Augusta, GA; Macon Museum of Arts & Sciences, Macon, GA; Hardin Arts Center, Gadsden, AL; Brick City Gallery, Springfield, MO; and in group exhibitions at Porter Contemporary, New York; American University Museum, Washington, DC, Blackrock Center for the Arts, Germantown, MD; Longview Gallery, Washington, DC and McLean Project for the Arts, McLean VA. Marchand’s work is published in100 Artists of the Mid Atlantic, Capital File Magazine, Home and Design Magazine, Artists Homes and Studios, Studio Visit Magazine, and Object Lessons, Beauty and Meaning in Art. She is recipient of an Artist Fellowship 2020 from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities.

The exhibition will be on display at The Silva Gallery x Latela Curatorial from September 3-October 3, 2021.
