︎Pushing the Envelope Group Exhibition
On view November 2, 2024 - March 30, 2025
The National Museum of Computing
Block H, Bletchley ParkBletchley, England, MK3 6GX, UK

Pushing the Envelope: An exhibition of mailed and correspondence art showcases work made by 2D artists who either use or reference archaic technologies. As The National Museum of Computing houses the world's first electronic computer, the Colossus, which Tommy Flowers spent eleven months designing and building at the Post Office Research Station in North West London, each artwork will be posted into the Museum. The mailed artworks are to be hung through-out the galleries between, beside or over the machines themselves. While the museum’s visitors will diversify and expand the artists' audiences, the exhibition aims to introduce art to the visitors they would otherwise never see. Curated by Lucy Helton.
The exhibition features work from the following artists:
Antony Cairns
Harry Gammer-Flitcroft
Stewart Hardie
Lucy Helton
Qiana Mestrich
Sarah Pickering
Indianna Solnick
Barry Stone
Clare Strand
Rahel Zoller & Louis Porter
︎Great Green Hope for the Urban Blues Group Exhibition
On view February 15–August 17, 2025
The Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center at Vassar
Across two centuries, artists have portrayed the Hudson Valley as an earthly paradise remote from the modern world. Though close to New York City, the region came to represent its idyllic opposite: a promised land of pristine beauty, pre-industrial lifeways, and utopian enclaves. In the wry words of one New York journalist, the Hudson Valley became a “great green hope” for the “urban blues.” At the same time, this enduring pastoral myth cloaks the region’s active ties to urban tourism and trade while obscuring histories of violent settlement, enslaved labor, and resource extraction. Gathering historic and contemporary art in various media, the exhibition invites viewers to explore how the Hudson Valley has been pictured as a place both proximate to the city and its opposite—a “great green hope” as much myth as reality.
Curated by John P. Murphy, Philip and Lynn Straus Curator of Prints and Drawings and Ian Shelley, Loeb Collections Curatorial Fellow
Exhibition Opening and Panel Discussion
Feb. 22, 2025, Panel discussion at 2:00 p.m.
Artists Tanya Marcuse, Qiana Mestrich, and Lisa Sanditz will discuss how their work responds to the Hudson Valley landscape in myth and reality.

Archive 192 is an independent archive dedicated to preserving and celebrating abstractionist works by women photographers established in 2015 by photographer Louie Palu and photo editor Chloe Coleman. The archive, which now holds over 200 prints, books and ephemera, challenges conventional narratives of the history of photography that center documentary realism and aims to counter underrepresentation of work by women in institutional collections.
