SOLOS 2016 marks the 10th anniversary of SOLOS exhibitions which celebrate the artistic talent and diversity of its artist members. Through the compelling bodies of work exhibited, regional artists have explored a variety of ideas from unique points of view. SOLOS 2016 will feature up to 8 artists, selected by Douglas Hyland, former Director of the New Britain Museum of American Art. The exhibition is sponsored by Cohen and Wolf, PC.
