“Address Earth 2023” Opening at Hudson Valley MOCA

This Saturday, October 14th at 3 p.m., The Hudson Valley Museum of Contemporary Arts (Hudson Valley MOCA) Peekskill will be hosting its second post-pandemic physical exhibition entitled “Address Earth 2023.” The exhibition Curated by Bibiana Huang Matheis for Inspiration Arts Group International features a collection of more than 30 artists who celebrate planet Earth and use art to address the critical global issues that affect our world and environment.

Carla Rae Johnson’s sculpture titled “Gaze” evokes the sense of wonder we can experience when we gaze at the vault of a night sky without the interference of air and light pollution.

Artists address ecology, sustainability, climate change, endangered species, clean water, deforestation, humanity and the future of humanity. Artists unite under the common theme and express their own vision artistically, without boundaries. All artistic media and styles are included: 2D, 3D, short film and video, and installation art. “Address Earth 2023” will run October 14 – December 9, 2023 at the Hudson Valley MOCA 1701 Main Street, Peekskill, New York

Artists: Aaditi Joshi, Antoinette Wysocki, Bibiana Huang Matheis, Bridget Pavalow, Carla Rae Johnson, Chris Combs, Corinne Lapin-Cohen, Crystal Marshall, Elisa Pritzker, Evan Pachon, George Spencer, Harry C Tabak, Karen Fitzgerald, Karen LaFleur, Khalil Chishtee, Jenna Lash, Leslie Connito, Linda Stillman, Lisa Rosenstein, Loren Eiferman, Marcy B.
