RoCA will present the exhibition, State of the Art as part of the TransHudson Project, a collaborative project with participating partners Rye Art Center & Pelham Art Center. The elasticity of the category Art is the subject of this exhibition along with the extreme diversity of current art production. State of the Art explores this dynamic explosion of multiple perspectives by presenting the work of seven artists who are brought together through their dissimilarities.

TransHudson Project panel discussion will be held in collaboration
with the Jacob Burns Film center Oct 19.

He delivers snapshot imagery in bravura, large-scale oil painting technique, raising trout fishing to an almost spiritual level.

He has fished for trout in the Willowemoc, the Letort, and throughout Washington State.

Peter Dudek ::

Peter Dudek is fascinated by the systems used by architects to design their furniture as well as their buildings. He uses these systems to fuse objects and blur their interpretation. Recent exhibitions have been at Yellow Bird Gallery, Newburgh, the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia and the Lab and Makor in NYC. He has been the recipient of a C.A.P.S. grant and a Marie Walsh Sharpe Residency. He is also an independent curator whose most recent project was "T-Zone" at Smack Mellon, Brooklyn, NY.
