With over 30 works, this exhibition demonstrated the diverse and innovative ways that Lucas Artists Program (LAP) Fellows used paper as a vehicle for creative expression. Selected artists marshaled the creative possibilities of the medium to create abstract, figurative, and text-based works. In their hands, paper was transformed by paint, ink, print and mixed media; embossed, woven, cut up, converted into collage; and molded and shaped into sculpture.
Possibilities of Paper featured highlights from the LAP’s extensive collection of works on paper by its fellows, as well as new commissions and works on loan. Artworks were either produced by artists during their stays at the LAP or influenced by their time in residence.
The exhibit was organized in association with a year-long anniversary celebration of Montalvo’s Residency Program. In 2015, we commemorated the 10-year jubilee of the Sally and Don Lucas Artists Residency as well as the foundation of the third oldest artists residency in the US at Montalvo.
