“What is your Abstract? It can be colorful or neutral tones, complicated or simple lines, bold or subdued and everything in between. What does Abstract Art mean to you? Can something that is abstract reference anything at all (landscape, human etc.) or does it need to be completely unrecognizable, referencing nothing but itself?”

Through this open call, we sought work that challenges, redefines, or reaffirms the boundaries of abstraction. Each piece on display reflects an individual response to this question, offering a personal interpretation of what it means to make abstract art today.

Abstract Back at Ya is a juried abstract group exhibition at The Sketchbook Gallery on view from Nov 8 - Dec 13, 2025. Gallery Hours are 12-5pm on Thursdays/Sundays and 12-6pm on Fridays/Saturdays. The Opening Reception will take place on Sat, Nov 8 from 3-6pm and it is part of the Saugerties Art Walk.
