Join us on Second Thursday at Crane Arts in celebrating the group exhibition The Voice of the People The Voice of the People is a juried open-call exhibition featuring 12 InLiquid Member Artists. This exhibition invited current InLiquid artist members to submit works that explore American Politics. Each artist brings a unique artistic perspective on the political choices we make, the systems we exist within, and portrayed security within our political environment.  Florence Weisz and Deanna Mclaughlin bring back pieces that were shown in InLiquid’s 2020 exhibition, Satirical Candidacy. Florence reworked her interactive collaged portraits of Joe Biden and Donald Trump to now feature Kamala Harris alongside Donald Trump. Deanna’s interactive Operation USA invites audience members to pull indicators from a large-scale replication of the classic board game Operation. Each piece is a symbol of a national crisis that persisted through our history, and is still relevant today. Both artists show the similarities between the political choices we made 4 years ago, and the ones we are faced with this year.  As audience members are interacting with Florence’s collage portraits, they’re facing a gallery wall in which Geoffrey Stein’s large scale collages of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are sitting on either side of E. Sherman Haymans L’Amer-EEK! — an American flag pieced together with quotes by political figure heads that seemingly disintegrates at the ends. Geoffrey’s portraits are made of clippings from pivotal speeches, court documents, and images that defined each figurehead's career. Each artwork shows that a whole is greater than the sum of its parts, each small piece alone is easy to look over but standing together creates a clear picture.  Peter Sparber’s American Elegy series looms over audience members as they sit faced with portraits of our current presidential candidates. His five large-scale drawings display the myths of the American Political archetypes; Liberty, Property, Authority, Equality, and Insurrection. Seemingly hopeless, heartbroken, and hypocritical.  When facing Peter’s dominating imagery, Carol Taylor-Kearney’s flag series offers a glimpse of hope. Her large, colorful pieces are amalgamations of the American Flag and Tibetan Prayer flags. By overlaying the naturally symbolic colors of Tibetan flags and imagery of joy over the worn American flag, she is reimagining them as vessels of an optimistic future in which children are agents of nature, compassion, and peace.  As audience members make their way to the last section in the gallery, they are met with the byproducts of existing within the current American Political landscape. Imagery from protests, propaganda-style posters, and direct responses to the seemingly never-ending fight for reproductive rights. Each artist in this section is using their voice and artistic expression to cope with the hardships that we endure when faced with moments of oppression, opposition, and nation-wide hardships.  Kathleen Greco creates portraits in which a frayed American flag is seemingly unraveling around a female figure, hinting at the stronghold that the American government has over reproductive freedom. Printmaker and Activist, Rhodna Babb, creates reimagined propaganda-style posters that encourage viewers to think about the impact they have on their own future. Sandra Benhaim and Gary Grissom show composite images of protests and movements, a hopeful display of country-wide mobilization at times of distress. Dolores Poacelli’s piece is a direct reference to voices collecting under one message - the imagery indicative of viewing swaths of protest signs when looking over a crowd. Carole Loeffler shows us the voices of the unheard, with embroidered messages from women imagined.  The InLiquid Gallery is located within the Crane Arts Building, which is wheelchair accessible. There is limited accessible parking at the front of the building and a ramp leading to the main entrance. The main building door is not automated. Two all-gender bathrooms with multiple stalls are available for use — one with urinals, one without, and both with 1–2 wheelchair-accessible stall(s).

Philadelphia was once the capital of the United States, so there is plenty of history, museums, monuments, and sites around the city. The Philadelphia Museum of Art boasts a nice array of exhibits. I visited on a Friday evening after work because museum admission is free Friday evenings (pay what you wish). I did pay for parking at their garage, which was only $5.

I feel that the attractions in downtown Philadelphia are really excellent. This monument near the Freedom Bell is unified and managed by National Park. Opposite the Freedom Bell is a large visitor center. Here you can consult the travel guide for Philadelphia. The staff and volunteers here are also very enthusiastic. Help to give travel advice and answer consultation questions. There is also a small souvenir shop here, you can buy refrigerator stickers, books, postcards and other related Philadelphia souvenirs. There is also an exhibition in the visitor center. Although it will be more mini-pocket than the museum, it still does not affect the number of tourists here. If you come by car, there is also a parking lot on the ground floor of the independent palace visitor center for everyone to park. Although parking in downtown Philadelphia is not very convenient, parking spaces are not very easy to find. I recommend everyone to come to the underground parking lot of the visitor center to park. If you come in peak season, you need to come to the visitor center to apply for the ticket for the visit of the Independence Palace first, but I don&rsquo;t know if it&rsquo;s because of the epidemic. You don&rsquo;t need to get a ticket when you come. You can enter the visit directly.
