CURRENT CONTEMPORARY EXHIBITION

Salon de Refusés at the Ancient Sculpture Museum

September 1, 2023 through January 6, 2024

Public Reception: Saturday, September 9 from 4PM to 6PM. Included in general park admission.

Inspired by the Salon of 1863 when the Paris Salon famously rejected the likes of Edouard Manet, Gustave Camille Pissarro, and James McNeill Whistler, Pyramid Hill's exhibition theme seeks to give art and artists a second chance. Salon de Refusés asked artists to submit an artwork that was rejected from a past exhibition or project and reflect upon that rejection. As a juried show, open to local artists and across North America, the jury will consider each artist's reflection as well as the artwork itself in the final judging.
