Upcoming Walk
Mary Cassatt and Catherine Murphy, Great Women Artists of the Past and
Present, and Contemporary Dutch Artist Berend Strik
WHAT:
 My favorite current exhibition-"Mary Cassatt: Prints and Drawings from the
Collection of Vollard"-reveals experimental printmaking techniques and a
surprisingly modernist sensibility in innovative work previously unseen by
contemporary audiences. We will explore Cassatt's printing styles as well as her
relationship with legendary dealer Vollard in this "amazing opportunity for
anyone who's not quite figured out that Mary Cassatt wasn't just a great woman
artist...but quite simply one of the greatest artists of the last 200 years."

In her show of gorgeous new paintings and drawings, "Hedonist of the
Ordinary", Catherine Murphy registers the different ways the visual and
physical realms collide. "By making vision and tactility synonymous, the artist
achieves something unprecedented in realist painting...she infuses her
rigorously conceived investigations of the everyday world with an abundance of
inventiveness."

Dutch artist Berend Strik's embroidered photographs simultaeneously
underscore and expand upon the reality presented. The images are chosen
from photographs the artist has taken on his travels through Africa,
documenting the people, architecture and post-colonial landscapes of the
continent.  By perforating them with a needle and thread, the two-dimensional
quality of the image is disrupted, creating a work that is both tactile and
conceptually driven.
