INSPIRED BY GEORGE INNESS: LIFE AND LANDSCAPE

Type: Exhibition Opportunities [View all]
Posted by: Studio Montclair Inc
Deadline: Sun, July 24th, 2022

This joint exhibition will be displayed concurrently at two locations in Montclair: the Leach Gallery, Studio Montclair’s newest 3,000-square-foot gallery located at 641 Bloomfield Avenue, Montclair; and MAM’s Vance Wall Art Education Center gallery. It is expected that only 2-D work will be considered for exhibition in the Museum’s gallery.

 

Studio Montclair (SMI) and the Montclair Art Museum (MAM) will be partnering again this year to create a unique exhibition of art inspired by a new installation of works by George Inness curated from MAM’s extensive collection. MAM’s collection is regarded by the renowned Inness scholar and local resident, Dr. Adrienne Baxter Bell as “the greatest collection of Inness paintings in the world.”

Inness believed that natural forms were manifestations of the divine; he referred to this spiritual dimension as “the reality of the unseen.” A master of essentials, he felt that a literal copying of nature would record only its transitory and fragmentary aspects.

We invite artists to be inspired by master painter George Inness, his colors, his subject matter, his style, his spirituality, etc…

JURORS: Virginia S. Block & Ira Wagner
