We are delighted to open our next exhibitions in the gallery: Still Standing by Hannah Price and Gentle Landing by Zeal Eva. Join us on Saturday, December 3rd, from 11am-12pm for the brunch reception for Still Standing and Gentle Landing. Meet artists Hannah Price and Zeal Eva as they guide us through an informal walk-through of the shows! These exhibitions will be on view at Silver Eye from December 2nd, 2022, through February 10th, 2023 Silver Eye is honored to present Still Standing by Hannah Price, made while an African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund Fellow with the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Whether honoring Black cultural figures or supporting Black centers of creativity, the Trust brings attention to the importance of historical memory and cultural continuity. Price documented the restoration of historic buildings in the Hill District and Homewood neighborhoods of Pittsburgh. These included the August Wilson House, the National Negro Opera Company House, and the New Granada Theater. Still Standing includes Price’s portraits of people living in the communities around these landmarks today. These portraits reflect that these structures exist in thriving communities whose heritage inspires the creative life of the Hill District and Homewood now and in the future. Zeal Eva’s Gentle Landing is a small step in the journey towards self-actualization for the artist who has found herself these past five years in a search for home, while actively finding moments of pause, peace, and humanity in the everyday and the “what’s next?” This exhibition is part of Silver Eye's Pittsburgh Presents series, a year-round project to highlight the work of extraordinary artists and image-makers working in our community.
