Exhibition: Pretty Pictures & Social Issues Season two ~ JULY 2024


Connecticut artist Will Brady's upcoming exhibit, "Pretty Pictures & Social Issues", on display in July 2024, at Gallery at the Wauregan, 200 Main Street, Norwich CT, promises to be both visually, and intellectually, stunning.

The show's flyer grabs attention, too. A vibrant night scene of an historic building overlooks illuminated text that reads "SLAVERY" as the opening line.
Will Brady's exhibit gives viewers both vivid detailed landscapes, floral still lifes, and illuminated texts meant to inspire while also challenging us to reflect and recognize critical issues we need to address.
Social and cultural matters: tragedies, prejudice, environmental decay, inequality; displayed in illuminated texts, akin to ancient manuscripts and scrolls, beaconing reflection on matters of import while simultaneously allowing our eyes the comfort of exquisite, detailed, collage and painted renderings.
The exhibit is on display from the end of June 2024 through end of July. A reception with the artist to be held First Friday, July 5 between 4 pm and 8 pm. Gallery hours 1:00 pm to 4:45 pm every day of the week.
