Body Eclectic 2026
All Media Featuring the Human Figure

The Body Eclectic All Media Show returns to Lawrence Street Gallery with its theme - the human body, in all its shapes and forms and feelings. This open call celebrates the figure as a powerful vehicle for expression, reflection, and meaning across a range of media and approaches. This year, we had over 90 artists enter and our juror selected a stunning , eclectic presentation of 50 pieces celebrating the human body through diverse artistic lenses.

This year's juror is Mary Dudek.

Mary Dudek is a Pontiac-based artist specializing in sacred fine art, primarily focused on figure sculpture, drawing, painting, and ceramics. Her bronze figure sculptures can be seen throughout Metro-Detroit, including at the Capuchin Friar Retreat Center in Washington, MI. In addition to her studio practice, she teaches figure drawing, painting, and sculpting at Paint Creek Center for the Arts and Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center.
