The exhibition Relief: Byrdcliffe Artists-in-Residence 2018 is the third annual exhibition of its kind, showcasing a selection of work by Byrdcliffe’s residents from the previous year. The exhibition provides a glimpse into the creative marvels generated by the visual artists, writers, and composers engaged in Byrdcliffe’s Artist-in-Residence (AiR) Program, as both residents and members of the Woodstock community.
Artists in the AiR Program have the opportunity to live and work in an enchanting mountain community in the majestic town of Woodstock, New York. Residents join the great tradition of the Byrdcliffe art
colony, founded in 1902 upon a utopian vision for artists from all walks of life. This vision thrives today and is embodied in each of the works presented in this exhibition.
