Description
The American Scene Through the Eyes of Gerrit Sinclair
September 15, 2022 - January 8, 2023
Sponsored by the Wisconsin Arts Board & National Endowment for the Arts
Gerrit Van Sinclair (1890-1955) was one of Wisconsin?s best-known artists of American Scene painting, also known as American Regionalism. Featured in this exhibition from private collections are sentimental scenes of Milwaukee, Washington, and Ozaukee Counties including an all-American baseball game captured in soft, hazy afternoon lighting; the everyday American family enjoying a lazy day in a clean, manicured park; and the quaint and quiet downtown streets of rural towns. Sinclair?s charming paintings combine the American Scene?s mission with distinct warm tones and atmospheric qualities reminiscent of Impressionism.
