Tappeto Volante founders curator Paola Gallio and artists Jared Deery, JJ Manford, and Elisa Soliven are proud to announce La Banda, an expansive and inclusive summer group show of works on paper, paintings, and sculpture. The show features work by TV’s founders and artists of their choice who also share TV’s commitment to the community.

The show includes works by Eve Ackroyd, Chris Bertholf, Katherine Bradford, Maria Calandra, Karen Dana Cohen, Erik den Breejen, Jared Deery, Mary DeVincentis, Laura Frantz, Priscilla Fusco, Alicia Gibson, Tamara Gonzales, Gretta Johnson, Benjamin Klein, Osamu Kobayashi, Leonora Loeb, JJ Manford, Justin Q. Martin, Christopher Martino, Amy Mascena, Seung-Min Lee, Rachel Ostrow, Peter Park, Nora Riggs, Mason Saltarrelli, Francesco Simeti, Elisa Soliven, Alessandro Teoldi, and Annette Wehrhahn; as well as a performance of The Carpet Series by Pigeonwing Dance at 7:30 pm on opening night.With its second show, TV continues its mission of uplifting and recharging the arts. La Banda is a playful yet poignant reference to The Blues Brothers, where the brothers explain they are bringing their band back together because “we’re on a mission from God” (to save an orphanage). After lockdown, social distancing, and isolation, celebrating, honoring, and nurturing the resilience of the art community amid the worldwide pandemic and its aftermath is TV’s mission.
