New Perspectives in Drawing and Painting

May 20 - June 18, 2022

in our Juried Gallery

The St. Louis Artists’ Guild is proud to present New Perspectives in Drawing and Painting, juried by Lizzy Martinez drawing and painting faculty at the University of Missouri St. Louis. The exhibit presents 42 national artists working in contemporary drawing and painting techniques. Over the past 50 years, drawing has been elevated from a supporting role to a primary medium, ranking alongside painting as a central art form. Despite its long history, painting continues to evolve and excite, with new generations taking it in unexpected directions. A central pillar of artistic practice, painting also has an enduring appeal for showcasing artists working in the drawing painting media that are bringing contemporary topics, issues, and aesthetics to traditional practices.
