- **Event Description**: Curator and artist present on the exhibition "Ilana Manolson: The Air We Share"About this EventCurator Sarah Tanguy and Artist Ilana Manolson, will discuss the exhibition "Ilana Manolson: The Air We Share", in a gallery talk scheduled forSunday, 2:00- 3:00pmAbout the exhibition:A Project Space exhibitionIlana Manolson, ArtistSarah Tanguy, CuratorThe Air We Share invites viewers to look closely at the plants that thrive at the edges of human attention. Painter, printmaker, and naturalist Ilana Manolson celebrates and elevates species often dismissed as weeds, revealing their vitality, beauty, and essential roles within the ecosystems we share.Manolson paints through deep observation. Swaths of color flow across luminous landscapes while delicate strokes trace the intricate veins of leaves. Her “energetic fields”—bursts of light and form—make visible the unseen forces connecting all living things. Informed by her training as a botanist, her work finds grace and purpose in what many overlook.This exhibition challenges the hierarchies humans impose on nature. Weeds, often maligned as invaders, stabilize soil, retain water, and offer shelter, medicine, and renewal. By placing them at the center of her compositions, Manolson reclaims their dignity and reveals their quiet power.As climate urgency intensifies, The Air We Share calls for renewed awareness of our interdependence with the natural world. Manolson’s paintings remind us that life not only persists but flourishes in the margins, and that every living thing contributes to the shared breath that sustains us all.This event will be held in-person at the museum.Please direct any questions about this event to the museum's main contact for this event, Patricia Poku-Speight at ppoku@american.edu.Image: Ilana Manolson, Vernal Pond, 2015.

We focus on international art because American University has a global commitment. We show political art because the university is committed to human rights, social justice, and political engagement. We support the artists in our community because the university takes an active and responsible role in the formation of our contemporary art and culture.We present exhibitions that mirror American University’s aspiration to be the premier Washington-based, global university. Our programming puts the best art of our region in a national and international context. Our collections enable us to present the art history of Washington, while our Kunsthalle attitude brings the most provocative art of our time to our place."
