May 5 – June 16, 2006
This show was organized by the University of Tennessee’s Ewing Gallery of Art and Architecture to celebrate and recognize the centennial anniversary of Abstraction as a movement.  Over the years, Abstraction has become one of the most widely popular styles in art, taking on many forms.  This exhibition provides a broad view of Abstraction by including works by three diverse artists. Each of these painters has demonstrated a life-long commitment to Abstraction.  Individually, the pieces in this exhibition represent several styles of Abstraction and illustrate each artist’s approach.  As a whole, these works effectively represent the movement of Abstraction and its continuing evolution.
