2020 New York State Juried Art Exhibit

2020 New York State Juried Art Exhibit
September 19, 2020 through January 10, 2021
Juror: Mary Ann Varley, Ottawa, CA

The Frederic Remington Art Museum’s 2020 New York State Juried Art Exhibition opened on Saturday, September 19. The exhibit will be on view in the Museum’s Richard E. Winter Gallery & Torrey Family Gallery. 

For this year’s exhibition, juror Mary Ann Varley of Ottawa, ON selected 46 works to be in the exhibition, including drawings, paintings, photographs, and mixed media works. In her comments, Varley noted that there were several artworks “of outstanding quality, demonstrating exquisite skill and technical merit, especially in painting. These works show maturity of the artist who considers all of the elements of a really fine artwork. Fresh bright watercolour strokes or fine rendering in oil reveal this mastery of technique and expression.” She added: “I was happy to see a work or two which immediately brought a smile. We need this especially this year.”

Many of the works on display will be for sale. One third of the proceeds benefit the Frederic Remington Art Museum, and two thirds go to the artist. To purchase artwork from the exhibit visit our Museum Shop
