The Art League Presents Ann Pickett The Exuberance of Life
The Washington Post Inside the Galleries with Mark Jenkins September 23, 2018
"In several local exhibitions, the work of two artists is thrust into dialogue. Charlene Nield and Ann Pickett go further in their Foundry Gallery show, “a deux.” -- the color sense of Pickett’s abstraction is evident"
"Like most of the duo’s subjects, the animal has a playful immediacy that owes as much to gesture as to recognizable image."

ART LEAGUE SOLO SHOW MARCH 2019!!
10 Artist Accepted for Solo Shows in 2019
Each fall, The Art League brings in a panel of jurors to select artists for solo shows. The jurying takes place two years ahead of time, so artists can get back to the studio and build their exhibit, based on their proposal and jury feedback.
Jurors were Isabel Manalo, Anjuli Lebowitz, and Martin Kotler. Forty-five different artists submitted proposals this time around — no easy feat in itself! The jurors selected 10 artists for shows, which will be scheduled for 2019.

Ann Pickett also is an abstractionist, but her vibrant acrylic-on-paper paintings have an almost-representational quality that suggests Richard Diebenkorn. These pictures hint at landscape, but also at intimate interior vignettes."
