Monday will mark the last day for Decompositions, photographer Pamela Zilly's look at the way nature makes its presence known in the man-made world, wearing through metal in the form of rust. The show, at the Art League Gallery, ends Monday.
Also on the way out is Bethesda's 10th International Art Competition , which ends Wednesday at Fraser Gallery. Modern, contemporary realism is the theme of the show, judged by curator and DC Art News blogger F. Lennox Campello. And the exhibition yielded a few surprises, notably third-place winner Jenny Davis, 17, of Hughesville, Md. -- whose stunning, close-up watercolors have the illuminated, photographic quality of Gerhard Richter's.
