The secrets of the studio are passed between artists, in a gradual sharing of technique and encouragement. This exhibit reveals the relationships between contemporary representational painters and sculptors and their inspirations in 19th-century artists through their work and in their own words.
The exhibit surveys paintings, drawings, and sculptures, featuring work by William-Adolphe Bouguereau, Lynn Christopher, Giambologna (Jean Boulogne), Alexandre Falguière, Adrien Étienne Gaudez, Jean-Léon Gérôme, Daniel Graves, F. Scott Hess, Luke Hillestad, Regina Jacobson, Brad Kunkle, Hüicho Lé, Richard MacDonald, Antonin Mercié, David Molesky, Annie Murphy-Robinson, Odd Nerdrum, Michael Pearce, Alicia Ponzio, Jon Swihart, Ruth Weisberg, Gary Weisman, Lea Colie Wight, and Pamela Wilson.
Generous loans were provided by the artists, CoproGallery, Jack Rutberg Fine Arts, Koplin del Rio, The Tes Manley Collection, and The Fred and Sherry Ross Collection, and the Jon Swihart Collection. Curated by Michael Pearce.
