Paula Saponaro | 45 Years in Color & Form | Retrospective

July 5 – September 28, 2025

Complimentary champagne and hors d’oeuvres will be served at the BAC members only reception on Saturday, September 13 from 11am-12pm with a public reception to follow from 12-2pm.

Spanning four and a half decades, Paula Saponaro’s work is a dynamic exploration of color, structure, and artistic discipline. Her retrospective showcases a seamless dialogue between graphic design, printmaking, painting, drawing, and collage—each piece distinct yet undeniably hers.

From the expressive landscapes of Things Unpainted (Watering the Sheep) to the bold silkscreens of Atmospherix and the evocative imagery of Some Women (Moonwalk), Saponaro’s artistic language remains cohesive through shifting mediums and palettes. Even as her work moves into vibrant, high-color compositions like Studio Cat, her signature approach to form and concept is unmistakable.

This retrospective not only highlights the breadth of Saponaro’s creative evolution but also reveals the intentional continuity that ties her work together—a journey through color, construction, and the fluid boundaries of artistic expression.
