The past eight years the gallery has hosted an annual Realism Invitational, which became renowned as an opportunity to investigate the premiere established and emerging artists of this genre. In honor of its 9th installation, the show has been renamed Representation 2007 in a gesture to embody a broader understanding of the style and inclusion of mediums beyond painting. The scope of this year’s work embraces a range from photorealism by Ralph Goings and John Baeder to realism by Scott Fraser, video by Gerald Förster, ceramic sculpture by Richard Shaw, and photography by Michael Eastman and Lynn Goldsmith. A fully illustrated catalogue will be available for $40 ppd.
