Artists Members Show

Guild Hall's 59th annual Artist Members exhibit opens on Saturday with a reception from 4 to 6 p.m.

The oldest nonjuried museum show on Long Island, the exhibit has included the works of well-known artists such as Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning over the years. This year works by some 375 artists will hang, including - for the first time - photographs (26, to be precise).

Arthur C. Danto, an art critic for The Nation and a philosophy professor at Columbia University, will serve as this year's judge. The winner of the Best in Show award, $1,000, will be announced at the opening reception, as will winners in other categories, and the winning work will be exhibited at a later Guild Hall installation.

The show can be seen Wednesdays through Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from noon to 5 p.m. through May 3.
