Correspondence

The idea of Correspondence originated from New Urban Arts’ artist–in-resident Holly Ewald in 2000. Over the course of eight years, Holly and her friend Christina sent a book back and forth to each other, responding to images that they created in the book.

Holly started a similar conversation with one of our students who could not attend her workshop because of a scheduling conflict. In one of the responses, the artist, Meg, altered a stamp. Holly presented it to a group of us in the studio and asked us to respond to the stamp with our own artwork. These responses varied in media, image, and thought. This enabled the group to see how one image can be interpreted in different ways.

Over the years, New urban Arts has been challenging the way people make and look at artwork through Correspondence. Last year, we paired students, artist mentors, staff, and board members to respond to artwork made by their partners.

This year, along with students, artist mentors, staff and board members, we have invited alumni, volunteers, and donors to join us in responding to poems written by New Urban Arts’ students.

As we continue to develop new ideas that push us to grow and expand our creative practice, we, in turn, build a collective community of people who create and celebrate the process of artmaking.
