It’s a phenomenon that Amie Potsic has captured in California... and brought back to Philadelphia to share with our community. Potsic's career in photography has taken her across the world. She's traveled from Israel to India, from Brazil to California, and more.”

“Today, she [Potsic] has been focusing on deforestation, an issue that she has photographed around the world. Her pictures are snapped in northern California where deadly wildfires have raged and left flat, barren lands in their wake. She compared these photographs to those she had taken of her daughter in the lush forests of the northeast, showcasing a 4-year-old girl among green ferns and trees.”

"‘I think whether it's a sculpture, drawings, or photographs, the images we most respond to are images of other people,’ said Arlene Love. That message encapsulates the last seven decades of Love's lifetime of art. And no matter the medium, Love felt comfortable expressing the highs and lows of womanhood in her work.”

“Curated by Amie Potsic, the inaugural exhibit at the new location of the Interactive Museum of Contemporary Art (iMOCA) will highlight Love’s multi-discipline artistic career, which is inspired by feminist portrayals of the feminine form. The exhibit is a featured presentation of the city’s ReFocus: Philadelphia Focuses on Women in the Visual Arts festival.”

“The complexity of pieces like the watercolors on woodcut Forest Floor #1 and Tondo #17 (Tide Pool #2) bring to mind the work of Alan Gussow and Emily Brown who found inspiration in similar subjects (including compost piles). Six vertical collages, a couple of them with jagged edges, underscore Woolsey’s sumptuous designs, edging into the decorative in the case of Spring Garden and Ripples.”

Bruce Katsiff’s artwork from Nature Morte series and interview featured in RQ © Root Quarterly Magazine, 2023

Katsiff began making the images for his Nature Morte series when he was squarely in middle age, and truly examining his mortal- ity-and his father's death. The large format platinum prints of artfully arranged bones, feathers, and decayed or decaying animals are striking and beautiful. His photographs are reliquaries built to house the quotidian bones that give us form and function, a new life springing from death.”

“His multimedia installation project, Anahata, a Sanskrit word with multiple meanings including “unhurt” and “unbroken,” invites us into a world populated with beings that waver between the familiar and the fantastic. Dressed in gossamer and spikes, masks and body paint, the denizens of this dark world startle us with their luminescent power as they leap and cavort across a waking dream space. It is easy to suspend your disbelief with this immersive piece.” -Sharon Garbe

“The COVID-19 pandemic forced many to find creative new approaches to their daily lives from suddenly turning dining tables into schoolrooms, to Zoom meetings in a button-down shirt and pajama pants, to family gatherings socially distanced across parking lots (BYO chair and beverages!). For Pia De Girolamo, a local artist, that reflection is visible in her new show Garden, which opens April 6th. De Girolamo’s art comes with a unique perspective that, while it would have been unimaginable a few years ago, may bring a sense of familiarity and comfort now.” -Victoria Flickinger

“There was a moment in the summer of 2021 when artist RA Friedman thought his latest project was coming to a natural close. In August, he stepped away from his soft pencil leads and cycled 170 miles solo through southwest Pennsylvania. By the end of the summer, Friedman realized the moment was just that—a pause, not an ending.”

“One corner of the InLiquid at gallery, inside Kensington’s Crane Arts building, is filled floor to ceiling with hand drawn portraits of unidentified people who have died in the last two years from COVID-19. About 150 drawings spread out 20 feet on either side. The tight cluster of portraits in The Trouble I’ve Seen: Drawings from the COVID-19 Portrait Project, USA, form a formidable wall of grief and memory, even if most viewers will never be able to name any of those people.” -Peter Crimmins

"Amie Potsic has two untitled works—topical, socio-political images of mannequins (from her 2000 Seduce Me series)—whose visual juxtapositions and contemporary sensibility come not from the expected digital process. They are historic-process silver gelatin prints on aluminum." -Gail Obenreder

“Working with the expansive industrial architecture of The Delaware Contemporary, Potsic strives to punctuate the height, scale, and proportion of the interior space. With over 250 linear feet of silk, Potsic has designed a monumental site-specific installation involving panels suspended on wires in the atrium plenum. The semi-translucent silk with photographic imagery of silhouetted tree branches weave and dance throughout the space in sweeping, graceful, abstract lines.”

“An acclaimed photographer and installation artist, Amie Potsic looks for similarities in artists. Main Line Art Center’s former executive director, she launched Amie Potsic Art Advisory last year. “High craft level comes first, but I’m also drawn to artists trying to communicate conceptual ideas,” she says. “There has to be something that speaks to the human condition or fundamental elements of existence.”

“My work explores climate change and gender equality through immersive installations and photographic works.  My current show explores these ideas through a lens of Magical Realism, introducing narrative and personal experience to issues that can sometimes seem too large to address.  After photographing my daughter in the lush forests of the Northeast, I traveled west to Paradise, California and its surrounding forests to photograph the complete devastation caused by the deadliest wildfire in the state’s history.  Personal experience underscoring the urgency of climate change; my new work intertwines visions of girlhood in a magical environment with nature’s unprecedented destruction caused by wildfires.” -Amie Potsic
