The Gainesville Fine Arts Association will present its fifth Biennial National Juried Exhibition, “Line by Line,” featuring the work of 43 artists from 18 states.
The exhibition, which explores the many meanings and uses of “line” in art, will be on display Aug. 26 through Oct. 23 at the Gainesville Fine Arts Association, 1314 S. Main St., Gainesville.
The opening reception for the exhibition will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 28.
“Line by Line” examines line as a mark, boundary, path, division, connection, structure and symbol. Artists use lines to define form, create movement, separate spaces, map journeys and tell stories. Lines also can represent physical, emotional, social, political or imaginary concepts.
The exhibition is curated by Skip Snow and Katy Lemle and brings together artists from across the country for a diverse exploration of the theme.
The public is invited to attend the following events associated with the exhibition:
- Aug. 28, 7-10 p.m. — Artwalk: Opening Reception. The exhibition will officially open with a reception at GFAA.
- Sept. 3, 7-8:30 p.m. — Artists Meetup. The public is invited to meet and connect with artists participating in the exhibition.
- Sept. 25, 7-10 p.m. — Artwalk: “Line Up.” An evening featuring collaborative art, storytelling and games.
