Abstraction is not the absence of reality, but another way of seeing it.
The Art of Abstraction brings together a diverse group of contemporary artists whose practices explore the expressive possibilities of form, color, gesture, pattern, and material. Through distinct visual vocabularies, the works in this exhibition move beyond representation to engage with perception, emotion, memory, and space.
From the gestural energy of painters such as Tom Lieber to the geometric investigations of L'Atlas, the exhibition highlights the breadth and vitality of abstraction today. Artists including Paul Ecke, Hunt Rettig, and Lisa Bartleson each contribute unique approaches that challenge conventional ways of seeing, inviting viewers to engage directly with the visual experience.
Rather than offering a single definition, The Art of Abstraction presents abstraction as an evolving dialogue—one that continues to inspire experimentation, innovation, and personal interpretation. Together, these works demonstrate how abstraction remains one of the most dynamic and enduring forces in contemporary art.
