Princeton Theological Seminary’s Erdman Art Gallery to Open Urban Abstractions—An Exhibit of Paintings from Nature into the Abstract

Princeton, NJ, December 14, 2005– On January 4, Princeton Theological Seminary’s Erdman Art Gallery will open Urban Abstractions, an exhibit by artist Zenna Broomer featuring a large body of work that boldly captures both the vitality and variety of the urban scene. Her work will be on display through February 10. 

A painter who continues to explore “The Gritty Urban Landscape” as the subject for her journey from nature into the abstract, Broomer found inspiration for her recent works is the vista from the New Jersey Turnpike.

She is a graduate of the School of Art and Design at Wolverhampton University, located in the British Midlands, considered the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. She emigrated in the 1970s and now resides in the Princeton area. She has exhibited widely in the Northeast. 

The Seminary’s Erdman Art Gallery will host an artist’s reception with Broomer on Monday, January 9 from 4:30 until 5:45 p.m.

The Erdman Art Gallery is located in Erdman Hall, 20 Library Place, at the Center of Continuing Education at Princeton Theological Seminary. Gallery hours are Monday through Saturday from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. and Sunday from 2:30 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. The reception and exhibit are free and open to the public.
