Join us for an exhibition celebrating the vibrant works on paper created during Poleskie’s most celebrated period of artistic innovation (1968–1998). The exhibition brings together a selection of these rarely seen works on paper, immersing viewers in the visual language of flight, abstraction, and performance. It offers an opportunity to revisit Poleskie’s visionary art-making in the air and to reflect on the enduring legacy of an artist who quite literally expanded the boundaries of the picture plane.

During National Dyslexia Awareness Month, Marywood will sponsoring an open to the public viewing of the documentary "THE BIG PICTURE, Rethinking Dyslexia," with a panel discussion from experts in the field to follow.
THE BIG PICTURE: Rethinking Dyslexia provides personal and uplifting accounts of the dyslexic experience from children, experts and iconic leaders, such as Sir Richard Branson and financier Charles Schwab. Directed by James Redford, the film not only clears up the misconceptions about the condition, but also paints a picture of hope for all who struggle with it.
Shining a spotlight on the latest scientific and psychological research, the film also highlights the work of Drs. Sally and Bennet Shaywitz, co-founders and co-directors of the Yale Center of Dyslexia and Creativity to illuminate the hidden origins and implications of dyslexia. Proving that dyslexia is a neurological issue and not a character flaw, THE BIG PICTURE beautifully illustrates that while the condition is an obstacle, it also carries some unique advantages, and ultimately can be overcome.
