2017 The Hyde Exhibitions Include Abstract, Contemporary, Watercolor And Photography

Officials at the Hyde Museum are looking for a strong 2017, with an exhibition schedule that includes one of the country’s greatest living watercolorists, an innovative contemporary artist, the most influential abstract artist of the postwar era, the annual Juried High School Show, and a massive exhibition of American folk art.
Featured exhibits this year include:
• Lorna Bieber: Forces of Nature, through May 14
The photo murals and montages of Bieber will be featured in the Hoopes Gallery. The artist manipulates stock media photography in scale and medium, reinterpreting the natural world, and evoking a sense of collective memory. Her works re-create nature as an idyllic and poetic world of familiar images. Bieber was trained as a painter, but turned her attention to photography while working for magazines. Her subject matter includes natural elements such as trees, flowers, and animals, as well as figurative subjects, sometimes with references to art history.
• Marking the Moment: The Art of Allen Blagden, Feb. 12 to April 16.
Blagden is a distinguished contemporary realist with longtime ties to the Adirondacks. He is well known for his paintings of animals, birds, landscapes, and people in the style of Winslow. His love of wildlife and birds stems from an internship illustrating for Serengeti National Park in Kenya, working for the Department of Ornithology at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., and summers spent in the Adirondacks.
Marking the Moment features 62 works by Blagden and is curated by Caroline Welsh, art historian and director emerita of the Adirondack Museum.
• The Juried High School Show, May 6 to May 28.
