Artspace is proud to announce the final exhibition of our 50th anniversary year.

From the Ground Up features the sculptural, painting, and textile works of six artists: Dorothy Caldwell, Wayne Cardinalli, Frances Dorsey, Faye Jacobs, Jeanne McRight, and Brian Nichols. Connected by time, theme, and place, their works illuminate the underlayers that ground and support 5 decades of artistic practice.
