Abstract
While releasing the artist from having to achieve a subject’s likeness, abstract art challenges the artist to create an image that is convincing without the benefit of referring to something else. The ABSTRACT exhibition highlights the vitality and scope of this genre. All exhibited work is for sale. Curated by Artist-Instructor Ellen Richman and Exhibits Director Robert Bowman. (Photo: details of work by Michael Schmidt, Tara Costello, Polly Norman, Eric Ketelson, and Jill Evans)
