The Retrieval of the Beautiful at the Painting Center, NYC

 

 

Moose Disco, 2014, acrylic on panel. 24 by 24 inches. 

Galen Johnson’s book The Retrieval of the Beautiful (Northwestern University Press) is a dynamic discussion of existence and consciousness of human activity, including art. Johnson writes, "Here it is enough to see that beauty and the sublime blend into one another when the beautiful grows powerful, transcendent and majestic." 

Something beautiful seduces you and draws you in. We invite artists of all disciplines to submit work that explores beauty through a variety of styles, materials and processes.

Opening Reception: Thursday, June 23, from 6 - 8 pm
