TIMELINE outdoor sculpture exhibit

TIMELINE is a dynamic group exhibit that offers a wide-ranging look at the Laurel Hill site and its layered history along the Schuylkill River. Artists, selected by jurors Nancy Agati and Rachel Zimmerman, proposed works that respond to the complex timeline of the property, the mansion itself, and the many individuals who have lived on, cared for, and shaped the land. Participating artists: Laura Frazure, Peggy Hartzell, Brenda Howell, Sam Horowitz, Carole Loeffler, Linda Lorrie Gross, Jessica Mungekar, Carrie R, Holly Smith, Simone Spicer, Julia Way, Marisa Williamson. With a focus on the past, several works in the exhibition address aspects of women’s rights to property, labor and farming, trade and commerce, slavery, and the abolitionist movement. Artists have engaged with broader themes, creating works that integrate and connect contemporary viewpoints with historical concepts, including the passage of time, displacement, resilience, stewardship, and our human relationship to the land.
