Celebrating 25 years of the Paul Dietrich Gallery
We’re celebrating 25 years of the Paul Dietrich Gallery with a special virtual edition of featured artists.
CambridgeSeven was founded by a collective of architects, designers and artists. Our dedication to enriching public space through our practice reaches beyond the design work we do every day. We believe it’s important to also support our creative community. The Paul Dietrich Gallery was born from this ethos.
Named after one of our firm’s founding partners, Paul Dietrich, the gallery is a prominent feature of CambridgeSeven’s office and exhibits the work of artists from around Greater Boston. We’re passionate about exploring and highlighting the intersection of art and architecture. Plus, the quarterly collections of inspired pieces keep our own creative juices flowing. Over the course of a quarter century, the gallery has shown a variety of work typologies – painting, photography, sculpture, drawing, and more – from talented artists with whom our firm has collaborated as well as artists from within our own walls. Throughout the gallery’s history artists including Peter Lyons, the Ulman family of artists, Anne Neely, Steve Imrich, Peter Vanderwarker, and Lynne Kortenhaus, among others, have exhibited works ranging from aabstract expressionist paintings, printmaking , sculpture and photography. The gallery has also evolved over time to adapt to changing needs, such as going fully virtual during the COVID19 pandemic, to allow visitors to enjoy the artwork in new ways.
To commemorate this important milestone, we’ve collected various works from the gallery’s 25-year history and combined them for viewers to explore in a digital gallery space. Join us for this virtual retrospective as we celebrate the Dietrich Gallery’s ongoing legacy.
We’re excited that the first show in our new office at 20 University Road will feature the work of returning fabric collage artist, Clara Wainwright. Her new show, Glory, which opens in January, finds and expresses humor in the modern political landscape.
