The human form is so captivating so why not paint it? Her figure so curvy and graceful so why not sculpt it? Nudes in artwork first appeared during the Hellenistic Age from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 B.C. to the middle of the first century B.C. These nudes were regarded as vessels carrying the Holy Spirit. From Michelangelo to Pablo Picasso, artists throughout history have scrutinized the beauty and complexity of the human form. Today, creative minds continue this examination and choose from a wide range of mediums and materials to best “bring to life” their portrayals. Y:ART Gallery is pleased to present THE FIGURE, an exhibition of paintings, photography, and sculpture that explore personal interpretations of the human form by artists, Daniel Brown, Donna Feldman Davis, and Josh Nozick. The virtual Opening Reception will be held on Facebook Live on Saturday, October 10, 2020 from 5-7pm, with an opportunity hear each artist talk about their. techniques, material choices, and inspirations. Appointments to see the show in person can be made October 7 through November 3. To schedule a visit, please contact us at (443) 928-2272 or email [email protected].
