The
mission of the nonprofit organization, New Approach, Inc. is
to promote emerging artists and curators, as well as to encourage
public awareness and exposure to unconventional medallic art.
New
Approach, Inc. was established by Mashiko Nakashima, who is
also the founder and director of the Medialia ... Rack and Hamper
Gallery, located in the former Garment District of New York
City. |

The
genesis of the non-profit organization New Approach began in
1998 with a joint medallic arts exhibition of students from
Faculdade de Belas Artes da Universidade de Lisboa, and the
The University of the Arts, Philadelphia. This collaborative
exhibition began at Medialia, then traveled to both schools
in Pennsylvania and Lisbon, Portugal, respectively. Subsequently,
this project, titled New
Ideas In Medallic Sculpture, has evolved into an
annual three-university exhibition hosted by The University
of the Arts and Faculdade de Belas Artes da Universidade de
Lisboa. |
