The Toy Canvas: Artists at Play
This exhibition will showcase art by FriendsWithYou, Mitchell Wu, Herb Williams, Tim Howell from LEGO® Masters Season 4, and many more!
Step into a mesmerizing journey through the ever-evolving art world, where creativity knows no bounds. Just as artists have transformed their visions across the decades, the materials they employ have undergone a thrilling metamorphosis. From the timeless canvas to the enduring marble and the enduring bronze, the artistic palette has expanded into boundless horizons. But,  prepare to be transported into a realm where nostalgia meets innovation. Our exhibition delves into the captivating universe of artists who wield toys and toy-related objects as artistic instruments. These visionaries craft inventive masterpieces that beckon to “the child within us all.” These aren’t just artworks; they are portals to a world where play is an art form, and memories are the brushstrokes that paint the canvas of our lives.
 
As you step closer to these enchanting creations, you’ll find yourself engulfed in a whirlwind of emotions, inviting you to rekindle the boundless imagination of your youth. Whether you’re a seasoned explorer of the art world or a curious newcomer, these engaging works will ignite your senses and transport you to a place where the boundary between reality and reverie dissolves.
 
So, join us on this exhilarating adventure as we explore how these artists breathe life into the toys and memories of our childhood, urging us to rediscover the magic of play and the infinite possibilities of our imagination. This exhibition isn’t just about art; it’s an invitation to rediscover the kid in all of us. This exhibition will be on view June 1- August 31, 2024.
