Dupont Circle, Sunday at Dawn - UP-267 by Gordon Binder
TRASH HEAP by Beverly Logan
As Washingtonians, we live in one of the great cities of the world. Two hundred and fifty miles north lies another one, New York City. Together they are among the world leaders in global events, finance, fashion, and the arts.
Gordon Binder focuses his artwork on the cities themselves. Luscious drawings and paintings of grand skylines, urban landscapes, iconic buildings, parks, and memorials. He shows his art in individual works that encourage the viewer to focus on one scene at a time.
Beverly Logan focuses her camera on what lies between. She has taken hundreds of images from the train and puts snippets of photos into collages that represent what travelers glimpse as they occasionally look out the window.
Through their artwork, the two artists tell the story of contemporary America: urban centers, small towns, open spaces, factories, graffiti-lined brick walls. Along the tracks, passengers view decay and rebirth as they pass newly-built expensive high-rise buildings and dilapidated homes. The residents of each share the deafening sounds of trains in their backyards, but do they ever think of the other?
The artists invite viewers to experience the exhibition itself as a journey, a metaphor for what we choose to see and what passes us by: From Washington to New York City.

Step Into The Moment by Sabiha Iqbal
This series of work on paper is inspired by and is a tribute to women who have stepped out of their bounds to grapple challenges, old and new, and realized their dreams. Using fragments of newspaper stories and torn pieces of photographs, with oils, gouache, markers, and charcoal I have woven stories which all have roots in actual events happening today.
