Art can be one large gesture or it can be made of many, many bits and pieces, a labor of love, an obsessive activity. These artists assemble the parts to make a whole that is “greater than the sum of its parts.”

Co-Curated by Vicky A. Clark and Casey Droege

Building a Local Art Collection? Our Favorite Reason to Celebrate!

CDCP recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. Bill Benter to fill his new offices with artworks. We are thrilled to have placed nearly 70 artworks by 19 contemporary Pittsburgh-based artists in Mr. Benter's downtown space.

Guests raise a glass to support local artists!
