opens Aug 29: A Wyeth plant studies Exhibition

Natural Selections:

Andrew Wyeth Plant Studies Exhibition

August 29, 2015 through January 31, 2016

Throughout his seven-decade career, Andrew Wyeth was constantly inspired by two regions—Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, where he had lived since birth, and Cushing, Maine, where he had spent each summer. Wyeth immersed himself in the distinctive qualities of these geographic locations and reinterpreted their mood and meaning to him through the filter of his memories and imagination. The exhibition includes many rarely seen works on paper by Andrew Wyeth that demonstrate his minute observation and distinctive use of color. Although much care and attention went into their creation, these works were largely unseen in the artist’s lifetime. See museum website www.brandywinemuseum.org for more details.
