BEYOND THE HORIZON
INTERPRETATIONS OF THE LANDSCAPE FROM WOMEN IN THE PERMANENT COLLECTION
February 18–June 16, 2024
Spanning mural-sized representational oil paintings, expressionistic watercolors and pastel drawings, and intimate mixed-media abstractions, Beyond the Horizon will take viewers on a journey through visual styles and thematic experiences of the landscape. Featured women artists from the permanent collection capture the essence and tone of the environment through their own unique visual language.
Large-scale works by Renate Aller, April Gornik, and Jane Wilson will demonstrate how these women artists masterfully composed mural-sized works, countering the common association of large-scale with the masculine. A selection of paintings by Jennifer Bartlett, Nell Blaine, Edith Prellwitz, Susan Vecsey, and Jane Wilson expand techniques to include expressionistic mark-making and atmospheric washes of color across meadows, forests, and mountain ranges. Collages, relief works, and textured surfaces by Darlene Charneco, Sandi Haber Fifield, Laurie Lambrecht, and Michelle Stuart will celebrate abstraction and conceptual interpretations of the land and nature. Throughout the galleries, visitors will be immersed in the landscape and experience how each artist transforms their view of the natural world.
Beyond the Horizon: Interpretations of the Landscape from Women in the Permanent Collection is curated by Brianna L. Hernández, Assistant Curator.
