Since the first such exhibition in 1995, Lemberg Gallery's Works for Young Collectors exhibition has been a metro Detroit favorite. Gallery directors Corrine Lemberg and Darlene Carroll spend months searching for a diverse selection of works by regionally and internationally celebrated artists that fall within a pre-determined price range; this year: three hundred dollars to five thousand dollars. This changing exhibition includes painting, sculpture, photography, ceramics, prints and drawings.
Ben Tré, Besl, Bills, Campbell, Caporael, Carr, Fishman, Fraga, Hadfield, Hammond, Hamrick, Hockney, Karolak, Lackey, Liu, Noland, Pfaff, Que, Rhodes, Tufts and others...
