The judges were three professional artists: Janine Wong<\/a>, Laurie Kaplowitz<\/a>, and Ruth Clegg<\/a>, who is also the president of the board of directors of Art League RI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wong takes a multidisciplinary approach when creating abstract prints, weaving together elements of art, craft, design, and architecture. Kaplowitz uses the human figure to explore nature and existence. Her art has been exhibited in galleries in Boston, Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Miami, and San Francisco. Clegg\u2019s art, which includes photography, video, printmaking, painting, and collage, has been displayed at the Providence Art Club, Bristol Museum of Art, Mystic Museum of Art, the Rhode Island School of Design Museum, Care New England, and the Smithsonian Graphic Art Collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After April 27, the 12 award-winning pieces of art will be showcased at GSO\u2019s Ocean Science & Exploration Center. The winners will be invited to GSO for a reception on a date to be determined, where they will be presented their awards.
