As contemporary artists\, they respond to their environment and their experiences by playing with lines\, shapes\, and colors until they best represent their ideas.  They are inspired by pop culture\, electronics\, observations of their environment\, frustrations\, fantasy worlds\, and familial relationships.  \nAs the students develop as artists\, they gain proficiency with their materials and develop methods\, marks\, and symbols that define their artistic voice. Some have chosen to work within one medium\, while others have embraced the full range of materials available to them. Because students at GBCS decide how\, what\, and why they create\, they learn to make choices and motivate themselves as practicing artists would.  They establish studio habits and creative thinking skills they can take anywhere. \nDiana Sanderson\, Art Educator at GBCS\, graduated in 2009 from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago with an M.A. in Art Education.  She positions her teaching practice in the realm of relational and performance art.  Now in her third year at GBCS\, she has created a classroom environment that teaches for artistic behavior. She curated this exhibition in collaboration with Amanda Lyons. \nAmanda Lyons\, collage and fiber artist with a passion for storytelling\, is particularly enchanted by children’s art.  As a GBCS parent and former teacher\, she curated large-scale student exhibitions at GBCS. A New Brunswick native and Rutgers graduate\, she is delighted to have the opportunity to curate this exhibition with Diana Sanderson and share the beauty of GBCS with our New Brunswick Community. \nImages from the opening reception \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Greater Brunswick Charter School Student Exhibition URL:https://www.alfaart.org/event/greater-brunswick-charter-school-student-exhibition-at-the-alfa-art-gallery/ LOCATION:Alfa Art Gallery\, 108 Church Street\, New Brunswick\, NJ\, 08901\, United States CATEGORIES:Exhibition Opening Reception ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.alfaart.org/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-2012-B.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Galina Kourteva":MAILTO:galina@alfaart.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20130110T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20130110T220000 DTSTAMP:20160801T182414Z CREATED:20130102T004031Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160801T182414Z UID:3631-1357844400-1357855200@www.alfaart.org SUMMARY:2013 - Jan 10 @ 7pm - “New Brunswick Through Photographers' Eyes" - New Brunswick Art Salon\, Winter 2013 - Photography DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: January 10\, 7-10pm \nOpen Studio: January 25\, 6pmExhibition Duration: January 10-29Open Tues-Sat\, 11am-6pm\, Thursday 11am-8:30pm  \nThe Alfa Art Gallery is proud to announce the third installation of our New Brunswick Art Salon. Opening on January 10\, 2013 at 7pm\, “New Brunswick Through Photographers Eyes” will be a juried photography exhibition\, featuring emerging and established artists. This photography salon has been designed in collaboration with the New Brunswick City Market and other organizations in order to display the large array of cultural and demographic interests that exist within New Brunswick. \nThe Alfa Art Gallery New Brunswick Art Salon has been a successful program for the last three years. Previously twice\, now three times\, during the year\, we present salons exhibiting emerging and professional artists in different mediums. The goal of these salons is to bridge the gap between artists and their communities\, as well as unifying this diverse city of New Brunswick through the use of art. \nIn weeks following the opening reception\, Alfa will also conduct an open studio event. This will include lectures and panel discussions from the photographers. Additionally\, the audience will have an opportunity to have their questions answers from the artists themselves\, in order to gain insight into their techniques and processes. \nThis exhibition will capture the diverse cultures and many talented photographers\, exhibiting New Brunswick through their eyes. The exhibiting artists will include: Andrew Darlow\, an active member of the photography scene in New Brunswick; Aubrey J Kauffman\, who focuses on complex images and multi-layered spaces; Frank Villafane\, a photographer who pays attention to dense details and contrasts; Mark Chernin\, who tends to accentuate a reflection of land or waterscapes with color\, contrast\, and saturation; and Neil Larsen\, a traditional/contemporary photography who concentrates on nature. \nTo show appreciation for the immense amount of work done by the New Brunswick Free Public Library in collecting and archiving New Brunswick’s history in images\, Alfa will also presents the photographs from the library’s “New Brunswick Tomorrow” collection. The collection consists of 6000 slides documenting the changing streetscapes of New Brunswick from 1979 into the early 1990s. \nThe library also maintains a significant local history collection of various media. Photographs are an integral part of the collections and include images of local Civil War veterans\, school events\, library programs\, nearly 200 Van Derveer photographs\, and building preservation documentation. \n \n \nImages from the opening reception \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Aubrey J.
