Perry Lawson Fine Art Presents: Bending the Arc

Perry Lawson Fine Art is pleased to present Bending the Arc, a national juried exhibition featuring artwork that explores the complexities of human values, such as respect, empathy, integrity, and moral courage. The title is drawn from an idea referenced by Martin Luther King, Jr., that “the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”

The twenty-five artists in this exhibition span a wide range of practices, working in sculpture, digital media, painting, and printmaking. Each engages with the theme in their own way: some present abstract works that convey tension or transformation; others take a narrative approach to illustrate hope or destructive forces; still others use metaphor or symbolism to express their reckoning with the world.

These works were selected through an open call by juror Claire Koelling, an arts professional based in New York City who currently serves as Senior Exhibitions Manager at Gagosian Gallery.

Gallery Hours: Friday-Sunday, 12-5 PM

Opening Reception: Saturday, January 24, 3-5 PM
