Favorite Pieces: An Intimate Look at Artistic Personalities
Unchained.Art Contemporary Gallery
Dec. 12, 2024 - Jan. 25, 2025
This holiday season, we invite you to experience art in its most personal form. Favorite Pieces presents 25 artists, each showcasing a single work they feel best represents their vision.
Each piece, handpicked by the artists, provides a unique lens into their world. Revealing their personal definitions of mastery and artistic identity, these works expose the inspirations, challenges, and passions that fuel each creator.
With a blend of returning and new artists of the gallery, the show is an evolving and growing dialogue featuring emerging and experienced artists from Austin and beyond —including Dallas, San Antonio, Canada, Washington, D.C., and Europe. The mediums include an eclectic mix of sculpture, painting, and photography, spanning styles from abstract to figurative.
We are keeping the favorites under wraps until opening night, preserving the sense of anticipation, discovery and surprise. Join us for an exhibition that blurs the lines between the artists and their art.
