Additional Exhibitions


​Lawrence had solo shows at District Fine Arts in Georgetown in 2005 and 2008-09 (the latter occasioning the publication of his 200-edition Ink Cities, reproducing 27 drawings). Soon after, also in Georgetown, Leopold’s Kafé & Konditorei presented Lawrence’s “City-Rama” exhibition of international urban vistas. In 2010, Baked & Wired bakery/coffeehouse, nearby, had a near-sellout show of Lawrence’s smaller city prints and drawings, plus three mixed-media pieces. In 2012, Lawrence’s ten-day, pop-up show called “Landmarks” was at L-2 Lounge, the subterranean night club of Leopold’s, featuring ink and color city drawings and a self-portrait in oil (with the Golden Gate Bridge).     

Earlier exhibitions have included six solo and numerous group shows over two decades at Washington’s Gallery K (where he was represented until it closed in 2003), “Options ‘83” and “From the Potomac to the Anacostia” at the Washington Project for the Arts (1983, 1988), “Black Art” at Rockville Arts Place in Maryland (1995), “Contemporary Self-Portraits from the James Goode Collection” at the National Portrait Gallery (1996), “Drawings and Other Works,” a solo show at Braunstein/Quay Gallery in San Francisco (1997-98), Jan Baum Gallery’s “Sassy & Surreal” group show in Los Angeles (with comic-turned-painter Martin Mull, among others, 2000), “Rockwellian Times” at 57 N Fine Art in D.C. (2000), a 14-work mixed-media and drawings retrospective at the Robert Lehman Art Center of his alma mater Brooks School in Massachusetts (2001), the American University Museum in Washington’s “Remembering Marc and Komei” (2006), honoring the connoisseurship of Gallery K’s late owners who collected local artists as well as such national figures as Sandy Skoglund, Jess, Robert Rauschenberg and Roy de Forest, and “Herb White: A Taste for Art,” a collection highlights show from the estate of a celebrated Washington restaurateur and arts salonniere, organized by the Washington Arts Museum (no longer extant) for the Edison Place Gallery (2008).
