Contemporary gallery Adams and Ollman brought together over 20 artists for this exhibition on the theme of fraktur, a decorative form of record-keeping practiced by Pennsylvania Dutch communities between 1740 and 1860. Reflecting rural traditions while incorporating a stylish flourish, the art form was used to record important life events. Local fave Jeffry Mitchell will share conceptually and formally related works alongside Polly Apfelbaum, Joy Feasley, Ryan McLaughlin, Katherine Bernhardt, and other buzzy names.
