California Figurative offers a diverse grouping of representational work exploring the complex nature of the human form in the mediums of oils and acrylics on canvas, mixed media and bronze sculpture. Our featured Northern California artists present their individual interpretations on the figurative theme. Prosaic settings depicting bodies in motion are examined through strong narratives, while bold, sensual and provocative bronze sculptures portray the human body as a single revelation. Some of the exhibited works dramatically capture personalities, others capture the viewer’s imagination with the use of light and shadow to produce images that are striking and visually stimulating. Our artists’ works are alive and expressive, providing an anchor of human meaning for the viewer.
