FIGURE/GROUND
25 Years of a Life Drawing Group

March 1-22, 2023

Reception: Friday, March 10, 5-7PM

This exhibit features work from an ongoing community of local artists, models and group coordinators who have continued the dedicated practice of filtering signal from noise, balancing figuration, the outlining of forms that matter to us, with what is relegated to background. Dedicated to the late Sal Casa, influential figure drawing instructor at CSU, Chico and Chico Art Center and a number of other talented local artists closely involved with CAC during Casa's tenure.

Events
