Feb 28, 2007


The Bob Rauschenberg Gallery at Edison College presents, “It’s All About the Figure,” a collection of works on loan from the Anthony Broy Family Collection from March 16 through April 14.

With more than 30 artists whose work is rooted in figurative representation, this exhibit is sure to have wide appeal. Through traditional and sometimes whimsical approaches, the work of these artists is expressed through painting, drawing, photography and printmaking. The exhibition features contemporary traditionalists like Paul G. Oxborough, Malcom T. Liepke, Mersad Berber, Gregory Calibey and Richard Piloco. Some surprises are also present, including work by artists Thomas Hart Benton and Man Ray as well as renowned photo journalist Harry Benson.

The opening night reception will be held from 6 - 8 p.m. March 16 with a chance to meet the collector during the Gallery Talk at 7 p.m. For more information on the show and the gallery, visit the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery web page by clicking here.
