Cultivate Beauty 2009

On view March 26 - May 3, 2009

“Beauty - which I admit to being in pursuit of - is an extremely suspect word among many in the art world - but I don’t think you can get along without it.  It’s a confirmation, frankly, of meaning in life.” - art photographer Robert Adams

Featuring art by Mitch Eckert, Michael Koerner, Gabrielle Mayer, Bethany Pierce, and James Michael Starr.

Now in its fourth year, the annual Cultivate Beauty exhibit has become a mainstay of the 930 gallery.

This year’s exhibit is different in that it only features the work of five artists which were hand picked to fit the theme.  In previous years, open calls for submissions were held and many local and regional artists were included in each show.  By choosing this small group of experienced artists we hope to get closer to the theme we’re trying to approach: Cultivate Beauty.
