| As
part of her ongoing series of installations, Angiola
Churchill created a new paper garden in the conservatory
room of Glyndor House. Sacred Grove is geometric
and organic in nature, the patterned white papers
float from above. As light passes through the gauzy
sheets it gives the room an ethereal quality. The
garden's fragility is reminiscent of the vulnerability
faced in life while simultaneously exuding a feeling
of optimism, as the viewer walks through it.
Angiola Churchill's recent exhibitions include Symbolic
Images , Crecloo Art Gallery, Jenkintown, PA (2004),
and Angiola Churchill - Beyond the Garden ,
Museo di Palazzo Fortuny, Venice (2003). She is Professor
Emerita of New York University; former Chair of the
Department of Arts & Arts Professions at the Steinhardt
School of Education and Director of the N.Y.U. Graduate
Studio Program in Venice, Italy since 1974. More information
