With enormous pleasure I present to you an exhibition entitled Small Treasures at Wired Gallery. I curated work from 30 artists who offer up revelry, quiet grace, restless entanglements with drawn lines rough and tumble, notably exact, tinged with perforation or zigzagged into repetitive pattern, floating merrily in open space, densely layered into geometric configurations or meandering lazily in tidy script. Density. Luminosity. Gradations of tonality. A spectrum of light and color ranging from brightness to dimness to darkness. Bright Pink. Grey. White. A single shape, minute or large. Clusters, masses. Systems of order versus disorder. Long lines and serrated lines, dots and dashes. Open space. Contained Space. Rhythmic or lyrical gestures. Sharp marks give way to the near disappearance of marks. Restrained density. Speckled brown squares. Graphite swirls. Systems of geometric ordering. Elegant columns of watercolor and thread. Yellow orbs. Juxtaposed textures from metal screening. Ribbon like curves. Rust on burned paper. Arcs of blue on vellum. Spring greens and summer light.

These artists engage with different amounts of materials and pigments to create distinctively small works of art. This deft display of skill and improvisation presents a striking and intriguing language of Abstraction. Come peruse the exuberant realm of Small Treasures!
