Artists' Reception Sunday July 28
Mary Dondero, Curators' Notes
"Look Harder, See More," offers an exploration of wide-ranging artistic expression. In a world often inundated with fleeting glances and surface-level observations, this exhibition encourages deeper engagement with all the artworks on display. From the hyper-realistic details that beckon closer inspection to the abstract forms that challenge perception, "Look Harder, See More" prompts viewers to transcend the obvious and delve into the hidden depths of artistic vision. In the realm of hyper-realism, artists meticulously render scenes and subjects with observational precision. Conversely, abstract minimalism strips away extraneous elements to distill essence and evoke contemplation, and figurative works offer glimpses into the human experience. Within these varied approaches lies a common thread: the power of art to provoke thought, evoke emotion, and ignite imagination. As you navigate this exhibition, I encourage you to linger, to explore, and to allow yourself to be captivated by the stories woven into each artwork. "Look Harder, See More," will inspire curiosity, provoke contemplation, and awaken a deeper appreciation for the power of art. |
