Singing the Body Electric

September 11 - October 11, 2009

Opening Reception: Friday, September 11 l 5:30 to 7:30 PM

Curator: Sarah Colby

Artists: Julia Karll, Lindsay Obermeyer and Jennifer Wilkey

Singing the Body Electric embodies the same theme as the Walt Whitman poem it references by affirming the aesthetic qualities of the human body despite, and sometimes because of, its frailties. Using the work of three textiles artists- Julia Karll, Lindsay Obermeyer and Jennifer Wilkey - the exhibit, curated by Sarah Colby, Arts and Healthcare Coordinator at Barnes Jewish Hospital, examines the connections between illness, both physical and societal, and the human spirit.
