Director’s Letter
For 30 years now, Vox Populi has presented original, thought-provoking and experimental exhibitions and programs that have challenged and expanded our concepts of what art can be or do. Artist-ran organizations like ours are so essential to the free flow of new ideas, forms, collaborations and organizational strategies amongst creative independents. Our artists, organizers and curators continue to achieve unexpected creative breakthroughs, create meaningful community connections and provide truly transformational moments of discovery. This results in a broader, richer, more eclectic and inclusive culture.
Joining the organization this past year, I am overwhelmed by the abundance of energy, creativity and ambition amongst the current membership, who sustain and fortify our organization with their generosity, art and ideas. I remain amazed by my first time at one of Vox Populi’s legendary First Friday gallery openings; still in awe of the hundreds of Philadelphians (and those visiting) who find inspiration and community within our space.
We are so grateful to Vox alum Kate Abercrombie for working with us on one-of-a-kind, limited edition prints as part of this year’s appeal! Preview Kate’s print, here!
Your support of our organization allows us to continue to provide that space, both to our artists and to our audiences. Your contributions mean the world to us, while also making it possible.
Sincerely,
Danny Orendorff, Executive Director
Ps. I hope you can join us for our 30th Anniversary Holiday Party + Fundraiser on Friday, December 14 from 8-11pm at Vox!
About Kate Abercrombie
Kate Abercrombie creates gouache-on-board paintings that incorporate a wide array of images scavenged from mediated visual culture as well as depictions of objects she lives with subverting our expectations regarding medium, style, period, and technique. Her work references Cubism, Futurism, and American Precisionism as well as earlier historical predecessors—trompe l’oeil artists such as John Peto and William Harnett.
Abercrombie has an MFA from University of Texas at Austin and a BFA from Tyler School of Art, Temple University, Philadelphia. She has been included in exhibitions in Philadelphia at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Vox Populi, Fleisher/Ollman, Little Berlin, and Black Floor. She has also shown at the Creative Research Laboratory, Austin, TX. In 2005, she received an Independence Foundation Fellowship in the Arts. In 2009, she was awarded a residency at the Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, VT. Her work is in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Fabric Workshop and Museum.
