The Art Collection at Mid-Manhattan Library is pleased to present an installation of embroideries by the emerging artist Deirdre Donohue. Sevdah is a work in four parts done over four years from 2002-2006. Each part is a 15 foot long banner composed of 40 embroidered collaged squares of muslin and a variety of scraps of trimmings, fabrics and threads. The banners are John (2002), Myrtle (2003), Trevor (2004) and Philip (2005). Each banner has abstract references to qualities, preferences, and activities of the four people. Bernard Yenelouis, curator and educator at the School of the International Center of Photography, will join Donohue for an Artist Dialogue on Monday March 16th at 6:30 p.m. on the 6th floor. The exhibition series Art Wall on Third is curated by Arezoo Moseni.
