Description

HOBOKEN, NJ — The Main Street Pops Gallery at Pilsener Haus (the Hoboken Biergarten) is Celebrating The Goddess this month with a new art exhibit by NYC mixed media collage artist Denise Adler. Inspired by myths, legends and symbolism, the artist uses paint, photographs, magazine articles and discarded found objects like trash, string, and plastic, to create portraits and dreamscapes that reflect her empathetic and apprehensive reaction to current events in the world around her. These personal and thoughtful pieces memorialize a moment in time and share a vision of something more sensible and beautiful. "I am an artist because I have always loved the process of creating," says Denise Adler. Having grown up drawing, painting and taking pictures, she taps into her imagination to solve visual problems: "It's what makes me happy." Her mixed media work often takes the form of drawing, painting and collage, where she explores multifaceted connections between the internal, external and virtual realms; ultimately, distilling her visions "into hybrid creations that illustrate my sense of our collective human experience." Added Tracy Gavant, Co-Founder of Main Street Pops, "We immediately connected with Denise's dreamy, mystical style and of course, as a woman-owned business, we loved the theme of "celebrating the goddess!" Currently, Denise shares a studio space in Chelsea, where "I am always working at expanding my work to incorporate a more ethereal sensibility," says Adler, who also names getting "lost" and discovering "solutions in that vulnerability" as a primary process related to her work. She is also a founding member of ArtSpeak Collective, a virtual gallery platform for artists, established during the pandemic, which is now an actual artist-run gallery on W27th St. in Chelsea, NYC, called Pictor Gallery. "Celebrating the Goddess" is on display from Sept. 8-Oct.31, with an Opening Reception on Wednesday from 7-9 p.m. at The Main Street Pops Gallery at Pilsener Haus, in the Wintergarten at 1422 Grand Street, Hoboken. This event is free and open to the public.
