SWEETWATER'S MEZZANINE GALLERY

The Pittsburgh Group

February 5 - March 27

The Pittsburgh Group began in the mid-nineteen-seventies after a class taught by artist Jerry Caplan ended, and several artists from class decided to gather for monthly art critique sessions. The group continues today with seventeen members, which includes several original along with newer invited members.

“We represent a wide range of media including drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, collage, metalsmithing, photography, digital art, and installation art.  Although we possess distinct visual vocabularies, we also value personal connections that have come about as we have shared experiences and developed friendships through the years.”
