For immediate release: Leaders in Abstraction, Volume One

INTERNATIONAL GROUP EXHIBITION, May 2021

This exhibition focuses on showcasing the highest quality of contemporary abstract work on a worldwide basis. Each volume in this series vets a curated selection of contemporary artists for a month long, online group exhibition.

Curator comments: "Abstraction is what resounds when you take away almost everything that can be recognized and work with the visual language of line, shape and color. This approach encourages the viewer to use personal experiences to interpret what they see. This exhibit is a rich landscape of things you cannot hold on to-- a suggestion of forms, the evidence of the artist, and the space in which they exist." --Rebecca George, Curator of Leaders in Abstraction, Volume I, 2021.
