Aldrich Museum Curator Tour & Lunch: Martha Diamond Exhibition

Friday, May 16, Noon-2:30pm

Join the Carriage Barn Arts Center for a guided group tour with Caitlin Monachino, Aldrich Museum Curatorial Manager, that will include the celebrated Martha Diamond: Deep Time exhibition (closing 5/18).  We will then enjoy a group picnic lunch in the newly renovated and expanded Sculpture Garden. The new Sculpture Garden features extensive pathways, native plantings, and an amphitheater and large scale installations, including the new piece Menagerie by multidisciplinary artist Moko Fukuyama. 

Martha Diamond is among the most perceptive painters of the last five decades. Her work’s formal concision and painterly bravado reflect an inner dialogue with generations of abstract artists, and the results are exceptional: an inimitable handling of gesture and space that reimagines the landscape tradition while deftly sliding between abstraction and representation. Comprised of paintings, works on paper, and monotypes, this focused survey of Diamond’s career proposes “deep time” as a new way of understanding her contribution to American painting.

Please register, space is limited.
