Interestingly, the last three places I've worked have all held art shows. This week, I have four paintings displayed at work. There are works from about 40 artists being shown and the work varies from quilts to mosaics to photography, poetry and installations, but I don't remember seeing much abstract art.
It's nice that the show is running for an entire week to give people a chance to look around.
I remember the first time I heard about an employee show, two jobs ago. Seems like it's gaining popularity among companies nowadays. For the first two years, I refused to participate because I was too intimidated to show my work to anyone outside of my immediate family, but oddly, it was because of project for an MBA class in leadership that finally gave me the confidence to share my work with others.
There wasn't enough time to create new pieces for this show, but luckily I've been taking art classes this year, so I had a series to show! Always nice to see that employees have a life and interests outside of the office!
