The first exhibition of the history of America’s longest existing art colony/school. The Ox-Bow Summer School at Saugatuck was founded by rebellious artists from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1910. The exhibit featured work from French plein air painting to American abstraction, Ox-Bow’s artists and its social scene, and ceramic garden sculptures by Saugatuck High School art students.
