The Shape of Color Art Exhibition

The Shape of Color Art Exhibition The Christopher Art Gallery is pleased to present The Shape of Color, an invitational exhibition featuring the extraordinary work of Rubén Aguirre, Gretchen Jankowski, Ann Blaas, Ginny Krueger, and James Bowden. These artists employ a wide variety of artistic strategies and materials. Some utilize unconventional materials such as spray paint and PVC surfaces as canvases, while others incorporate traditional media in innovative and exciting ways, including encaustic and oil painting techniques.
