The Bowery Gallery is proud to present the 25th Annual Juried Exhibition which runs Aug 2 – Aug 20.
We all are accustomed to competition in sports and politics, ( Olympics ! Elections!!!) but in the art world, competition takes its own unique form. The Bowery juried show had 386 applicants this year ; 39 pieces were chosen.
Many thanks to Martica Sawin, our juror, who admitted early on that she wished she could include all the work submitted. There were many, beautiful pieces –thank you Martica Sawin for taking this on and to all the artists who applied.
Congratulations to the artists in the exhibit. Here are some views of the gallery at the opening reception and artists with their paintings .

Featured image is the painting by Ro Lohin, ” In the Studio” . We were not able to take a photo of Ro Lohin with her painting. There is a wonderful review of another show she is in at South Street Gallery in Greenport.:
The Bowery Gallery is a co-operative gallery, wholly run by its artist members. Our mission is to exhibit work of the highest quality from independent artists. Just a little of our history: on October 31, 1969, a group of artists joined to form the Bowery Gallery. The gallery has been in continuous operation ever since, and is one of the oldest in NYC.
530 West 25th street, 4th floor,
NY, NY
Gallery hours: Tues-Sat 11-6pm. For more information, call 646-230-6655.
