Lyrical, lush and often larger than life, Conceptual Realism features the best of today’s Brooklyn artists who embrace the power of realism in the face of an increasingly technologically mediated culture. Using traditional art-making techniques, these artists explore endlessly fresh and provocative contemporary ideas. The finished work will astonish the viewer as it reveals the mystery hiding just beneath the surface of reality. Participating artists represent the broad scope of contemporary realism and include Ann Agee, Meredith Allen, Amy Cutler, Don Doe, Alessandra Exposito, Geoff Grogan, Valerie Hegarty, Susan Hamburger, Julie Heffernan, Jill Levine, Joan Linder, Deborah Simon, Su-en Wong and Alexi Worth.
