At the Markeim: Two Giannottis
(father and daughter)
› The opening reception for an exhibition of
paintings, sculptures, and relief art of John Giannotti
and the nature photography of his daughter Keara
Giannotti will be held at the Markeim Arts Center on
Sat Mar 9 from 7 to 9:30pm.
All are welcome.
John Giannotti is best known in Haddonfield as
the sculptor of Haddy, the downtown dinosaur.
More widely, he is known as professor emeritus at
Rutgers University, where he served as Fine Arts
chair in Camden and director of Junior Year Abroad
in Italy.
John Giannotti’s paintings and sculptures are in
public and private collections worldwide, including
bronze monuments of Madame Curie and Walt
Whitman at Soka University in Japan. Castings of
Walt Whitman also are installed in the cities of the
poet’s birth and death: Huntington NY and Camden.
In addition to Haddy, John has donated his
services to create several works locally, including
The Little Artist sculpture at Tatem School, the Rosie
Hymerling mural at Tatem, and The Last Buttonwood
relief painting at the Public Library. He has served
as a consultant and board member for the Markeim
and the Haddonfield Outdoor Sculpture Trust.
Keara Giannotti is a naturalist and the founder/
director of Camp Creek Run, a nonprofit 50-acre
camp and nature preserve in Marlton, dedicated to
connecting children with the natural world.
As an environmental educator, she embraces
nature study as both a science and an art form. Her
goal with nature photography is not only to capture
the beauty of the subject, but to create composed,
descriptive pictures that document intimate, macro
details of plants, animals, and fungi to be used as
reference to deepen her understanding, and share it
with others.
Music at the reception will be provided by
Reasonable Volume (Shandon Willey and Donte
Goldston).
The show – titled “Generations: A Father/
Daughter Exhibition” – will run thru Fri Apr 12.
