Contributed by Sharon Butler / This year Trestle Gallery�s summer group show, �Small Work,� was curated by Bill Carroll, a painter and the director at the Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts Studio Program. Selecting work for this kind of show, defined not by theme but simply by size, is always difficult. Carroll says he was awash in�promising�submissions and therefore adopted the�strategy of�organizing the work�by media and subject matter. Even then the mission remained�a challenge, but he completed it successfully. The exhibition, hung in a modified salon style, is full of good work, presented so as to invite further exploration of each�artist�s studio practice. Here are images of the pieces�that caught my eye, with links to�the artists’ websites.�Check out Trestle�s exhibition�page�to see all the work in the entire, glorious group.�
