Getting Ready to Celebrate!
May is another exciting month at the Greenville County Museum of Art. There is a new exhibition of work by Asheville artist Julyan Davis: Dark Corners/Appalachian Ballad. Davis paints the dilapidated rural South in works that dramatize lyrics from traditional mountain balads. It's on view through July 1.
You can see The Art of Alfred Hutty: Woodstock to Charleston from now until July 15. This is a career overview of one of the primary artists of the Charleston Renaissance. The exhibition features 60 works—evocative landscapes and realistic depictions of the human condition—that span the artist's years in Woodstock, NY, and in Charleston. The Art of Alfred Hutty: Woodstock to Charleston, was organized by the Gibbes Museum of Art, Charleston, South Carolina.
Find out more about each of these exhibitions in special Sundays@2 events in June. On June 17, Gibbes Curator Sara C. Arnold will lead a gallery talk about the Hutty exhibition. Julyan Davis will be here June 24 for an Artist Talk. Both events begin at 2:00 on those Sunday afternoons. If you would like regular information about the Museum's Sunday afternoon programs, sign up for weekly emails or like us on Facebook.
Andrew Wyeth: The Greenville Collection is now the largest and the most complete collection of Wyeth's work owned by any public museum in the world. Come see the new additions and enjoy your old favorites.
Other exhibitions include Historic Highlights: Selected Antiques Show Acquisitions, which showcases important works whose purchase was supported through the 26 years of the Museum's annual fund raising event. Portrait of Greenville has also returned with paintings by national and regional artists invited to depict our home town. The work of Spartanburg artist Helen DuPré Moseley will be available until July 8.
