Tiny Art

Prior to World War II, visual artists rarely worked in large-scale formats. But with the advent of the United States’ Abstract Expressionist movement in the late 1940s, large-format work became popular, along with monumental sculptures, sprawling installations and elaborate site-specific pieces. In response to this bigger-is-better attitude trend that is still with us, Kolman & Pryor Gallery  announces the exhibition, Tiny Art, in which many of the gallery’s artists and several guest artists turn to smaller formats to investigate problems of scale and its relation to size. Tiny Art runs Saturday, September 10 through Saturday, October 22, 2016 with an artist reception on Saturday, September 24, 7-9 p.m. 

"Our gallery artists are so willing to work outside of their comfort zone and enthusiastically agreed to participate in this show,” says Anita Sue Kolman, co-owner of Kolman & Pryor. “They see this exhibition as an opportunity to scale down their concepts and create something completely new.” All of the works in the show must be six inches or smaller.
