Join us for the opening of DORIS NOGUEIRA-ROGERS: FORM & CONTENT, a new show by the artist Doris Nogueira-Rogers—her first solo exhibition in Taller’s new building.
Nogueira-Rogers, based in Woodbury, NJ, was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She has been ubiquitous in the Philadelphia artist community for 46 years and has shown widely. She has worked in various mediums, including textiles, linoleum blocks, canvas, ceramics, and installations. Her work has often been political, addressing social inequity, nature, and environmental justice while remaining colorful, bright, evocative, and almost optimistic in their presentation. In her visual discourse, she uses nature-derived abstract compositions set against rich colors and shapes to create “forms” that hold deep symbolic meaning.
In her new show, FORM & CONTENT, Nogueira-Rogers created installations and two-dimensional work for audiences to journey through and experience. This new show highlights rarely-seen works whose themes resonate profoundly with our time.
