Studio B On the Road: An exhibit inspired by the Elements of Fraktur at Schwenkfelder Library and Heritage Center, Oct 13-Jan 17

Susan Biebuyck, gallery director at Studio B–Boyertown’s Fine Art Gallery, encouraged the studio’s 80+ artist members to be inspired by the colorful folk art known as Fraktur, popular with the 19th century Pennsylvania German folk culture, and to submit work using fresh and creative approaches for an exclusive exhibit to be held at Schwenkfelder Library and Heritage Center entitled “Elements of Fraktur.”  

While fraktur properly takes its name from the text or wording of hand-drawn documents that recorded births, baptisms, marriages, deaths, house blessings, for example, the fraktur maker almost always embellished his work with drawings of various birds (real and imaginary), tulips, angels, mermaids, soldiers, animals, and geometric patterns and designs of his fancy. Adapting the 19th century folk art style by 21st century artists for modern audiences proved to be a most rewarding and instructive challenge for the artists and a most interesting show.
