HERCULINA MAKES HER NEW YORK DEBUT

The studios at www.andreazemel.com and Iliad Design are pleased to announce Herculina's opening debut! The hand-painted etching, In the Game, will be featured as part of the exhibition, Access: A Feminist Perspective. In the Game is part of an on-going collection of works on paper and mylar that feature the character Herculina.

Curated by Rhonda Schaller and Dave Jaquish, Access will present the works of 28 contemporary artists from around the country. See a preview of the mythic heroine in her first showing at the Rhonda Schaller Studio at 547 West 27th Street in Chelsea. Join us for the opening on January 20th from 3 - 5 pm.

"Andrea Zemel's beautiful hand colored etching "In The Game" is part of a series of works about the character Herculina, who Zemel created to rise up from the dust of personal history as a chronicle of woman's struggle. With a sense of poise and equanimity, Zemel transforms mundane existence to an Olympian arena; a staging platform for the transformation of soul. " - Rhonda Schaller

www.andreazemel.com
IS COMING SOON!

Our website will host a full catalogue of images spanning from 1992-2006. You will also find essays and links to some of our favorite thinkers.
It seems a long a road, tracing the annals of this celluloid history to a debut on the intimate stage of the digital theater. We are continually amazed by the smallness of the world, for all its size, and even now remain somewhat astonished at the forum for casual democracy that the internet has become. Like what remained in Pandora’s Box, this inadvertent gift of hope we claim as our Trojan Horse and become now a voice heard in the wilderness.
Be sure you subscribe to get notification as soon as everything is up and running. We expect to be done construction by November 2006.
We want to offer our special thank s to Lindsay Brooke Richman and Frans Lenzen who designed the site.
