"Shame" includes work from Roberta Paul's
series "Creation : Science." The paintings
present Eve as the original femme fatale,
embodying wrongdoing and remorse, at the
moment of the Expulsion from Eden. This
multifaceted series ignites exploration of
shame, from Eve's fatal taste, to the sins
committed by religious or scientific zealots
throughout history, to modern
unscrupulousness. Set against a starry sky, an
eloquent and minimal version of Masaccio's
Renaissance painting of Adam and Eve finds
common ground between biblical and scientific
views of creation.
