Dance the Distance
Anne Berlit + Michele Foyer
Exhibition Award, This is the Future of Non-Objective Art,
a 2024 curatorial project of artist Suzan Shutan
Atlantic Gallery, Chelsea, NYC
Opening Reception, March 13, 2025
Rhythmic layering and a poetic use of light, color and reflection create distances and depths in the art of Anne Berlit and Michele Foyer. Berlit’s translucent, smooth surfaces and Foyer’s opaque high relief collages play off each other, as well as dance the distances within themselves.
Each artist’s work also dances beyond expected boundaries to incorporate the wall and environment into the piece, as well as engage the viewer in its perception.

*Juror: Jennifer King, Curator of Contemporary Art,
Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA)*
From New American Painting catalogue essay by Michael Wilson, writer + critic:
"... Michele Foyer, for her part, aims to represent a world in flux through more abstract means: painting, cutting, and conjoining shaped sheets of paper in expansive clusters that suggest the layers of experience and knowledge, which constitute individual psyches - and which are as subject to breakdown and reconstitution as any city. Foyer also paints each work's reverse side, producing a hidden layer of color that is reflected by the walls behind and around it and is highly mutable in its vulnerability to the subtlest changes in ambient light."
