CURRENT/UPCOMING EXHIBITS....

NINETY ONE
NINETY ONE

On April 6th 2009, the Visual Arts Gallery at New Jersey City University will premier NINETY ONE - the latest video work of POLINA ZAITSEVA, thru April 10th, 2009. The gallery is located in the Visual Arts Building, 100 Culver Avenue, Jersey City, NJ.
OPENING RECEPTION: APRIL 9, 2009, 5 PM- 8 PM.
Visual Arts Gallery 100 Culver Avenue Jersey City, NJ, 07305
In this new video, inspired by tremulous events in Russia during the early 1990s, Polina Zaitseva whimsically creates a visual timeline of socio-cultural evolution by manipulating media footage, old Soviet animation and self shot footage and photography.
Spiked with humor and irony, NINETY ONE conveys childhood memories, nostalgia and tradition. The video, punctuated by revolutionary Putsch, is based on occurrences two years prior to Polina Zaitseva leaving Saint Petersburg and arriving in New York in 1993 at the age of eleven.

In celebration of Newark's emergence as an art center, Clifford M.

In efforts to give back to the city, these artists have generously agreed to donate a portion of their proceeds to The Valerie Fund branch located in Newark. The Valerie Fund is a not-for-profit organization established in 1976 to provide support for the comprehensive health care of children with cancer and blood disorders. Today, there are seven Valerie Fund Children's Centers for Cancer and Blood Disorders located in major hospitals in the tri-state area, providing caring and comprehensive health care to more than 5,000 children and their families each year.
