TheGreatNude presents an exhibition surrounding the intellectual provocativeness of the nude figure. Why are artists inspired by the nude? How has the use of the figure changed culturally in the 21st century? Explore the unique way each artist has responded to and captured the great nude in person on any weekend in September.

Exhibiting artists include: Ana Bergen, Bob Clyatt, Janet Cook, Carole Feuerman, Chambliss Giobbi, Scott Goodwille, Gretchen Kelly, Vlad Kenner, Daniael Maidman, Joseph Pearson, Dan Pottick, Ilene Skeen, Eric Sontag, Eric Wallis, Mary Wehrhahn, and Jeff Wiener.

During the opening weekend, from 1 - 3 pm there will be a sketch session featuring some of the exhibiting artists drawing from a nude model. Bring your sketchbook! The public is welcomed to participate.

Admission is free for all events!

It is very easy to get to the fair, just take a free short ferry ride to the island to see the 100 solo exhibits, installations, performances and events.

The Small Works exhibit is located in Building #12 Section H, Room 4 on the second floor located at the main courtyard of the building.
