Pembroke Pines exhibit will celebrate 50 years of watercolor art. What to know
What did artists such as William Blake, Edward Hopper and Winslow Homer have in common?
They all dabbled with the centuries-old watercolor medium within their works.
That artistic evolution will be on display in Pembroke Pines starting this month as the Gold Coast Watercolor Society (GCWS) marks its 50th anniversary with a free public exhibition at the Studio 18 Art Complex.
The nonprofit has partnered with the City of Pembroke Pines to present “A Golden Watercolor Retrospective,” which features works by society members.
The exhibition is scheduled to run from Friday, Feb. 20, through Thursday, May 7, at the art complex, located at 1101 Poinciana Drive.
There will be a free opening reception for the “A Golden Watercolor Retrospectice” exhibition from 7 to 9 p.m. on Feb. 20 at Studio 18.
Founded in 1975, the GCWS supports new and experienced artists and promotes watercolor through exhibitions and educational programming across South Florida.
The organization’s mission is to “foster the advancement of the art of watercolor media/painting,” according to its website.
