It’s An Honor to Be Here: Ohio Nature Artists in Their Natural State

 
Art Exhibit at the Ohio Arts Council Riffe Gallery
 
Come see Ohio Nature Artists in Their Natural State at the Ohio Arts Council Riffe Gallery.
 
This exhibition features contemporary works of art by 16 artists who live and work in Ohio. Curators Maria Burke and Madeline Beaumier will be making a brief presentation at our February Monthly Program about this inspiring exhibition.
 
“At the start of the curation process, we talked about the people we admire: The ones behind the scenes—taxidermists and model makers, educators and naturalists—who love this world so much they go home at night and try to recreate it. We mused about a show that looks back at you and pieces that act like windows through the stark, white gallery walls. People come to nature in so many ways. We consider how patient observance of creatures so different from ourselves not only teaches us about our own humanity but inspires curiosity and respect in the next generation of natural stewards.” – Maria Burke and Madeline Beaumier, Curators
