Les Santons de Provence

Through January 20, 2008
Back by popular demand, more than 200 santons, or “little saints” in French, will be on display for the holiday season. The exhibition includes many examples on loan from the personal collection of Edith “Fuzzy” Gipstein as well as santons from the museum’s permanent collection.

Santons are hand-painted clay figurines that populate a miniature replica of a 19th-century village in southern France. Also included is the traditional crèche. Santons are at the center of an important two hundred-year-old tradition that is still maintained today in the area of Provence. Complementing the exhibition are seasonal paintings and sculptures from the museum’s permanent collection.

      Larry Dinkin: Painting to Silkscreen, an Interpretive Process

July 13 – September 23, 2007

The relationship between painting and silkscreen prints as seen through the creative eyes of New York artist Larry Dinkin.  He takes the viewer on a visual journey between the two media.  The vividly bold paintings and prints seem familiar and yet distant; perhaps a memory from a dream when one is jarred awake.  Within the brilliant colors and dense brushstrokes, one can almost see a structure, a landform, something recognizable, but not then quite. Dinkin says of his work, “The images depict a personal universe—distilled landscapes bound only by their own reality.  They strive for the flickering ambiguity of paint to dreamy vision, held fast within a structure that is both descriptive and dimensional.”
