Exhibitions
Monet to Dalí: Modern Masters from the Cleveland Museum of Art
Feb. 15–June 1, 2008
Ingram Gallery
This exhibition brings together 84 acclaimed European paintings and sculptures from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including works by Paul Cézanne, Salvador Dalí, Edgar Degas, Paul Gauguin, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, Pierre Auguste Renoir, Georges Seurat and Vincent Van Gogh. Together, these works illuminate the spirit of innovation and creativity that marks one of the most extraordinary epochs in the history of art.
This exhibition has been organized by the Cleveland Museum of Art.
Angelo Filomeno
Feb. 15–June 1, 2008
Gordon Contemporary Artists Project Gallery
New York artist Angelo Filomeno employs embroidery and appliqué on shantung silk in the creation of shimmering images, in which sharp-fanged skulls and prancing skeletons interact with such beautiful elements as peacocks, feathers and butterflies in modern versions of the danse macabre. Filomeno’s work is on view in the 2007 Venice Biennale, the theme of which, “Think With the Senses, Feel With the Mind: Art in the Present Tense,” perfectly encapsulates the sensuality and intellectual depth of the artist’s embroidered images.
Organized by the Frist Center for the Visual Arts.
