This exhibition features over 40 works of art from the Clay Center’s collection. Divided into four sections, “Abstraction”, “The Figure”, “Landscape” and “Pop Art”, Creative Space presents artworks that demonstrate methods and approaches for interpreting works of art. Artists featured in the exhibition include: Lesley Dill, Helen Frankenthaler, Martin Johnson Heade, Roy Lichtenstein, Martin Puryear, Lee Savage, Grace Martin Taylor, Andy Warhol and Frederick Waugh.

The collection started in 1963 when the Charleston Art Gallery of Sunrise obtained its first artwork. Currently the collection consists of close to 1,000 artworks.  Primarily consisting of 19th- 21st century American art, over half of the collection is comprised of works on paper such as drawings and prints.
