Artwork in Focus highlights a small, rotating selection of individual works created by members of the Ossining Arts Council. This space is designed to slow the pace of viewing and invite closer attention to each piece, allowing the artwork itself to take center stage.
The works featured here are drawn from OAC exhibitions, programs, and member submissions, and exist alongside our Virtual Exhibitions, which present a broader range of artists and artwork. Selections change over time, offering visitors the opportunity to return, engage with new works, and, when available, explore related content such as artist interviews or talks that offer further insight into the creative process.
For October, Artwork in Focus turns its attention to the Second Act Challenge, featuring three guitars transformed by OAC artists into original works of art. Each began as a used instrument and was reimagined through the artist’s own materials, techniques, and creative vision. Together, these works offer a closer look at the individuality and imagination behind this unique OAC project.
