SUMMARY:Alfa Art 2024-2025 Awards
DESCRIPTION:Alfa Art Gallery is delighted to invite you to “The Virtual Ceremony” for the New Brunswick Art Salon 2024 and 2025 Cycle Award Winners\, judged by our panel of curatorial interns. With expertise in artmaking\, graphic design\, art history\, and more\, our team offers professional and credible evaluations. The event will announce the first\, second\, and third-place award winners\, along with honorable mentions. \nFor over a decade\, the annual New Brunswick Art Salon has cultivated relationships between artists and art enthusiasts from New Jersey and the surrounding tri-state area. This September\, a special event will highlight the winners from exhibitions in 2024 and 2025\, celebrating their achievements and showcasing their exceptional work. \nThe Art of Perspective (January 2024 – March 2024) opened the 2024 New Brunswick Art Salon series with a dynamic showcase of photography. Featuring both emerging and established artists\, the exhibition highlighted how traditional subjects can be transformed through unique perspectives\, inviting viewers to reimagine their environment and reflect on the power of images to capture life in new ways. \nColor and Texture: Anthologies of Artistry (Aug 2024 – Oct 2024) brought together a vibrant mix of artists whose works explored the interplay of color and texture across painting\, sculpture\, and mixed media. The exhibition invited viewers to consider how identity\, heritage\, and environment are expressed through bold palettes\, layered materials\, and dynamic forms. \nTextures of the Tides: Explorations of Nature\, Forms\, and Identity (Nov 2024 – Jan 2025) showcased the fluidity and expressive potential of watercolor and mixed media. The exhibition explored the relationships between nature\, identity\, and form\, using texture and movement to evoke both personal and environmental connections. \nBeyond the Image: Unveiling Hidden Narratives (Jan 2025 – Mar 2025) presented diverse approaches to artistic photography\, emphasizing its power to tell layered human\, natural\, and spiritual stories. The works reflected on the complexity of narrative-making and the ways photography bridges the ordinary with the unseen. \nThe Mundane in Motion (Oct 2025 – Dec 2025) highlighted how everyday gestures and ordinary moments can be transformed into profound artistic statements. Through painting and sculpture\, artists reflected on memory\, presence\, and transformation\, turning the rhythms of daily life into expressive works of art. \nBetween Stillness and Surge (November 2025 – January 2026) featured watercolor and mixed media works that explored the shifting boundaries between serenity and momentum. Moving between abstraction and naturalism\, the exhibition highlighted watercolor’s expressive versatility and invited viewers to consider the balance of stillness and movement in both art and life. \nFeatured New Brunswick Art Salon Artists: \n2024 Photography – The Art of Perspective \nAnthony Buccino\, Arik Gorban\, Chery; Bomba\, Danny Froyen\, David Anderson\, Dennis Maida\, Dwight Hiscano\, Frederick Ballet\, Kay Kenny\, Samuel Vovsi\, Tsveta Ubcheva. \n2024 Oil\, Sculpture\, and Mixed Media – Color and texture: Anthologies of Artistry \nCarmelita Diaz Kamin\, Dan Finaldi\, Deborah Winiarski\, Duane Lutsko\, Jane Dell\, Josephine Barreiro\, Kat Collins\, Keith Vogrin\, Kirk Maynard\, Lisa Marseglia-Moran\, Rebecca Welz\, RitaMarie Cimini\, RitzB – Ritu Bajaj\, Rosalind Nzinga\, Sandra Koberlein\, Shoshana Kertesz. \n2024 Watercolor and Mixed Media – Textures of the Tides: Explorations of Nature\, Forms\, and Identity \nAlaiyo Bradshaw\, Cathleen McCoy Bristol\, Cheryl Gross\, David Gothard\, Hana Aviv\, Indira Cariappa\, Isabella Pizzano\, Joel Popadics\, Lisa Daniels\, Lisa Marseglia-Moran\, Patti Jordan\, Stella Chang\, Tony Armendariz\, Vince Salvati. \n2025 Photography – Beyond the Image: Unveiling Hidden Narratives \nBob Leonard\, Burt Solomon\, Dakin Roy\, David DesRochers\, Edward Volpe\, Jane Soodalter\, Jessica Margo\, Kay Kenny\, Neil Kohl\, Pete Aldrich\, Rocio De Alba\, Suzette Dushi\, Tsveta Ubcheva\, Walter Plotnick \n2025 Oil\, Sculpture\, and Mixed Media – The Mundane in Motion \nAbbey Rosko\, Angie Redmond\, Barbara Morcerf\, Chanelle René\, D’nae Harrison\, Jonathan Yubi\, Joy Kreves\, Karen Goldberg\, Lynda Charles\, Manuel Monge\, Rena Segal\, Sarah Yuster\, Shara E Bailey\, Zach Mellman-Carsey \n2025 Watercolor and Mixed Media – Between Stillness and Surge \nAlaiyo Bradshaw\, Andrew Chalfen\, Aprajita Lal\, Cassandra Saint-Jean\, Debra Bernath\, Gail Wood Miller\, Indrani Choudhury\, J.
