Kids@Katzen: The Photographic Life
Saturday, January 28¬–Tuesday, February 28
Photographs by Kids@Katzen participants inspired by the exhibitions Re-viewing Documentary: The Photographic Life of Louise Rosskam and Wayne Barrar: An Expanding Subterra.

Raoul Middleman: City Limits
Saturday, January 28–Saturday, March 18
Baltimore maestro Raoul Middleman’s nudes are not pretty— they are sagging, dimpled, and real. His cityscapes reveal the underbelly of post-industrial rot, his narrative paintings give contemporary life to his personal obsessions. They are intelligent, messy, and utterly masterful.

Regaining Our Faculties: Zoë Charlton, Tim Doud, Deborah Kahn, and Luis Manuel Cravo Silva
Saturday, January 28–Saturday, March 18
Recently returning from sabbaticals (sab·bat·i·cal) adj any extended period of leave from one's customary work, especially for rest, to acquire new skills or training), American University faculty members Zoë Charlton, Tim Doud, Deborah Kahn, and Luis Manuel Cravo Silva used their time wisely.

Anil Revri: Faith and Liberation through Abstraction
Saturday, January 28–Sunday, April 15
Anil Revri’s paintings function as aids to meditation, while at the same time the process of their creation is itself an act of meditation. They are beautiful, their craft is breathtaking, but their success depends on whether they further us, and the artist, along in the process of our own enlightenment.

Gabarrón’s Roots
Saturday, January 28–Sunday, April 15
The sculptures and paintings of Cristóbal Gabarrón have been seen in hundreds of exhibitions around the world, but never in Washington, D.C. Here, his vibrantly colored sculptures are larger than life, yet human in scale and effect; his painted tondos evoke archaeological and zoological mysteries.

Testimonials

“The DC Jazz Jam has provided a tremendous boost to DC’s indigenous jazz scene.  [The] cadre of fine musicians at Dahlak have managed to create a warm, inviting, encouraging, and creative environment at their weekly jam sessions, which is no small accomplishment.  Experienced professionals, like myself, attend the jam to relax, stretch out musically, and network with other players. But at the same time, the DC Jazz Jam has proved to be the perfect setting for younger talent to come out, and have some of their first experiences playing in front of an audience and to learn their craft in the laboratory of a nurturing jam session.  In this manner, the DC Jazz Jam is but the latest chapter in Washington’s long history with America’s classical music, jazz.”
