The Orleans Street Gallery presents Picturing Mary: Contemporary Images of the Madonna from March 22 to May 24, 2008.

Curated by Ruth Nelson.

Artists include: Diana Arrieta, Chantal Baros, Dorisa Camps, Margaret Carsello, Alicia Chester, Brian Dortmund, Makeba Kedem-DuBose, Elisabeth Dzuricsko, Bro. Mark Elder CM, Valerie Fuqua, Felipe Garcia, LeeAnn Gause, Diane Green, Violet Jaffe, Aphrodite Navab and Richard Jochum, Pete Nawara, Kristine O’Reilly, Enrique Ortiz, Elizabeth Parker, Rosie Presti, Cheryl Quick, Ben Speckmann, and Rachel Weaver Rivera.

    I grew up in Naperville originally. Moved to Oak Brook when I was 11, the city when I was 17, San Francisco at 20, Paris at 22, London at 26.

    There it is.
