Union Hall is celebrating its birthday with The Obstacle is the Path, a 5 Year Anniversary exhibition! A public opening reception will be on May 2 from 6-8 PM.
The Obstacle is the Path seeks to highlight some of the talent and innovation of the artists and curators who have been essential to our journey over the past five years. Inspired by the philosophy of Marcus Aurelius, who famously said, “What stands in the way becomes the way,” this exhibition commemorates Union Hall’s 5th Anniversary by delving into this timeless concept. The collection of artwork seeks to explore how obstacles, challenges, and constraints serve not as barriers but as catalysts for transformation along the creative path, shedding light on the artist’s journey of creation.
Curated by Union Hall’s Chief Curator Esther Hernandez, this exhibition includes the work of Chrissy Espinoza, Cory Feder, Eseosa Edebiri, Fernando Orellana, Jenna Annunziato, MaryV, Masha Sha, Nadiya Jackson, Natalie Thedford and Sarah McCormick.
The Obstacle is the Path will be on view from May 2 to June 1, 2024. Regular gallery hours are Wednesday through Saturday, 12-6 PM.
