Exhibition Dates: July 29 – August 16, 2025
The 2025 Annual PSG Jurying process is underway and notifications will be sent out June 4th
Juror: Bill Scott
Bill Scott is a painter and printmaker. His color-based abstractions echo nature and his imagination, creating imagery that complicates firm boundaries between the abstract and the representational. He has little interest in copying directly from nature, yet his canvases overflow with lush renderings of imagined flora and fauna.
In New York, he is represented by Hollis Taggart, where he has had ten solo exhibitions since 2004. Between 1989 and 1997, he had four solo exhibitions at Prince Street Gallery and wrote the catalog essay for the gallery’s 50th-anniversary exhibition catalog. He also exhibits at Cerulean Arts in Philadelphia, where he has also organized group exhibitions. Scott began his career studying at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts from 1974 to 1979, where he painted the figure and still life. He considers longer periods of working informally with other painters, including Joan Mitchell, as significant inspiration. An interview with him appears in Joan Mitchell by Her Friends (Les Presses du Réel, 2023). Other interviews with Scott include Art Spiel (2023), I Know Strange People (2022), Painting Perceptions (2020) and Beer with a Painter (2018). His works are in the permanent collections of the Cleveland Museum of Art, Delaware Art Museum, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Munson Museum of Art, and others. He has also written several times about the Impressionist Berthe Morisot and most recently contributed essays to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s 2024 exhibition catalog, Manet: A Model Family.
