Description
Arts Benicia is proud to present Drawing: The Probity of Art, drawing inspiration from Ingres, the French Neoclassical painter of the 18th and 19th Centuries who proclaimed “drawing was the probity (or true virtue) of art,” this exhibition focuses a contemporary lens’ on Ingres’ view and re-contextualizes its meaning. The seven artists selected for this show have a passion for drawing, not only as a graphic experience, but also as a means for invention, expression and exploration of their individual vision.The exhibition is guest curated by Artist and California College of the Arts Instructor, Mark Eanes, and will be on view at Arts June 20 – August 2, 2009. A free public reception for the artists will be held on Saturday, July 18 from 3:00 – 6:00 p.m
Gallery hours are Thursday through Sunday from noon to 5 PM, or by arrangement. Admission is free.
