\"SmallThe Atkinson Gallery<\/a>\u00a0hosts the 30th annual Small Images exhibition juried by Tif Sigfrids<\/a> of Tif Sigfrids Gallery in Los Angeles<\/a>. A juried competition featuring regional artists working in all media, the exhibition\u2019s only constraint is size\u2014all works must be 18\u201d or smaller in every dimension. The diminutive scale of the works necessitates both intimacy and concision resulting in a dynamic exhibit that invites viewers to \u201ctake a closer look.”<\/p>\n

The Atkinson Gallery\u00a0was\u00a0tremendously pleased with the enthusiastic response to Small Images from artists this year. The\u00a0exhibition gathered an unprecedented amount of attention even before opening, with\u00a0372 pieces by 177 different local artists submitted for consideration. This was a\u00a0significant increase in participation from the 246 pieces by 121 artists received in 2013. \u00a0From these submissions, Sigfrids selected 39 works from 29 artists including Esther Alinejad, Adrienne Allebe, Penny Arntz<\/a>, Pamela Benham, Kit Boise-Cossart, Linda Branch, Phoebe Brunner<\/a>, Lynn Coleman, Ralph Corners, Rob Decker, Rick Doehring, Benjamin Eckert, Elizabeth Flanagan, Diane Handloser, Holli Harmon<\/a>, Marilyn Kandus, Fredda Leiter, Sara Lytle, Laurie MacMillan, Patrick McGinnis, George Sanders, Nicole Strasburg<\/a>, Iben Vestergaard, Tio Vivo, Stephanie Washburn, Dorene White, Bill Woolway, Samah Yasin, and Pamela Zwehl-Burke<\/a>\u00a0for display.<\/p>\n
