Advanced Fine Art Program

Published on July 10, 2025

Studio Incamminati's accredited Advanced Fine Art Program was founded in 2002 by one of the world’s premier portrait artists, Nelson Shanks (1937-2015). Nelson – “unsurpassed as a practitioner and teacher of traditional painting techniques” (D. Dodge Thompson, the National Gallery of Art) – drew upon his own education to design a curriculum for artists of all ages and abilities to access training that hones their eye, builds their expertise, and shapes a rewarding career in professional art. Utilizing charcoal “wipeout” techniques (for form and value), color study developed by Henry Hensche, and an emphasis on the figure as the central subject, Nelson’s original pupils are still training new painters in these methods at Studio Incamminati today.

If you or someone you know is interested in a career in art – or just wants to see how far they can take their work – feel free to reach out to schedule a meeting or tour.

Call 215-592-7910 ext. 2 or email  info@studioincamminati.edu.

Venice and the Ottoman Empire

Published on July 7, 2025

Between 1400 and 1800, Venice—an astonishing city built on hundreds of small islands off the coast of northeast Italy—stood at the crossroads of a vast trade network connecting Africa, Asia, and Europe. To maintain its status as an international emporium, with markets full of spices, ceramics, metalwork, textiles, and other goods, Venice acquired overseas territories to its east and cultivated close ties with the Ottomans, whose empire became the wealthiest and most powerful in the Eastern Mediterranean after their conquest of Constantinople in 1453 and widespread expansion in the sixteenth century.

This ambitious cross-cultural exhibition about the Republic of Venice (697–1797) and the Ottoman Empire (ca. 1299–1922) explores a major chapter in world history. Featuring more than 150 works of art, the exhibition draws from the vast and varied collections of seven Venetian museums.

The exhibition is on view until September 1, 2025 at the Frist Art Museum, 919 Broadway, Nashville, TN 37203.

Landscapes - Robyn Asquini

Published on July 3, 2025

ARC Living Artist Robyn Asquini’s work blends figurative realism with expressive abstraction, weaving together fragmented figures with organic forms and textures. This series is especially personal since the subjects in the paintings are friends and fellow creatives. Each painting explores themes of solitude, transformation, and the connection between our inner and outer worlds.

The exhibition runs from June 26 – July 15, 2025 at the Cry Baby Gallery, 1468 Dundas St W, Toroto, ON M6J1Y6.

Gallery hours are 7pm-1am. Closed Tuesdays.

Emily Sargent: Portrait of a Family

Published on July 3, 2025

This unique presentation features watercolors by Emily Sargent (1857–1926), her older brother, renowned portraitist John Singer Sargent (1856–1925), and their mother, Mary Newbold Sargent (1826–1906). As the artistic family traveled seasonally through Europe, Mary encouraged her children’s creative aspirations. The siblings had a close relationship and often sketched and painted side by side. As John Singer Sargent’s bold portraits increasingly garnered critical attention, his younger sister Emily supported his career while building a body of work of her own that remained largely unseen.

Intended as a complement to The Met’s Sargent and Paris, this exhibition celebrates the recent gift—from the artists’ heirs—of 26 Emily Sargent watercolors, which will be making their debut.

The exhibition runs from July 1, 2025 – March 9, 2026 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1000 5th Ave, NY, New York, 10028.

Lines of Connection: Drawing and Printmaking

Published on July 1, 2025

In Europe, drawing and printmaking had rich interconnected histories evolving from the 15th century—when drawing and printing rose to prominence—to the 19th, when photography and notions of originality significantly altered their relationship. This major loan exhibition tells the story of how artists worked creatively on paper, crossing boundaries between media and challenging traditions.

The exhibition runs from July 1 – September 14, 2025 at The Getty Museum, 1200 Getty Center Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90049.
