Nude Drawings by Edward Meneeley

This show includes drawings done over the past 35 years by
internationally renowned artist Edward Meneeley. Born in Wilkes
Barre in1927 and now living in Lehighton, Mr. Meneeley was part of
the influential group of American Abstract Expressionist painters living
in New York in the 1950’s. “Every model is different,” Meneeley says,
“though some give more than others in the experience of their energy
unfolding through my lines onto paper. Each are intimate in their own
way.” Meneeley’s work is included in major public and private
collections throughout the world including the Museum of Modern Art
in New York and the Tate Modern in London.

The Emancipation of Paper: An exhibit of work by Yodi

A show featuring the work of the tireless Allentown artist Duane "Yodi" Vaden opens this Friday, July 3, at Home and Planet in south Bethlehem.

A reception will be held from 7-10 p.m. at the gallery at 25 East Third Street, Bethlehem.

On display will be masks and puppets made by Yodi who is known throughout the region for his work with the Street Theatre Alliance and area youth. There will also be an outdoor display of puppets not featured in the show.

Yodi recently coordinated the "Hamilton for Rent" show that is still ongoing in the storefont windows at 955 W. Hamilton Street, Allentown. He coordinates Artists in Action, performs stiltwalking and shares his large, handmade puppets at various events. He has exhibited and volunteered with the Chen Arts Group.
