2021–22

EXHIBITION

The 2021-22 Rosemary Beach Sculpture Exhibition (RBSE) marked the third biennial juried art show of contemporary outdoor sculpture on display throughout the town of Rosemary Beach.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE 2021-22 EXHIBITION

Forty-one artists from 25 states, Washington, D.C., and Spain submitted a total of 80 sculptures to the juried exhibition. Fourteen sculptures were selected for inclusion.

DATE

The Exhibition opened on Labor Day Weekend, September 4, 2021 and closed on September 5, 2022.

THEME

Theme for the exhibition was Caring About Tomorrow: Exploring Environmental Interdependence Through Public Art.

Each one of the fourteen sculptures selected for the Exhibition addresses the theme in various ways. The array of originality in the sculptures ensures that viewers will find those that touch their sensibilities around this subject. Some are quite provocative, while others more formally or subtly address environmental threats to the future of all living things, including humankind. Taken as a whole, the Exhibition offers wisdom and inspiration for the creation of a more sustainable world for generations to come.

Throughout history, it is the artists who hold up the mirror to our humanity and reflect the world not only as it is, but as it could be. Amid this past year of revelation and reevaluation of the state of our world, we look to the tender and concerned hands of the sculptor for expressions of hope for tomorrow.
