"Politics as UN-usual" View Press Release
The campaigns may be over, and elections decided, but political themes are still a hot topic for the artist's at Touchstone Gallery. Painters, printmakers, sculptors, photographers and graphic artists are emphasizing substance over spin, picking colors left and right, drawing political lines, and taking a second look at our patriotic and national symbols. Whether the art is subtle or in-your-face party support, you'll see ideas and designs that are way too often left off the typical campaign trail.
