Looking at, Talking about, and Appreciating Art
Libraries aren't the only institutions with archives! Many institutions, including #fwmoa, have designated collections they preserve and promote. Meet the artists currently in our Special Collections & Archives in this post:
Okay, we'll admit it, we're obsessed. After two staff picks, Pat Perry's work is also the focus of our #nowonview at #fwmoa. Dive into this in-depth look at his work to see why everyone at the Museum is resonating with these especially terrific paintings.
Staff at #fwmoa are playing favorites, or, picking the artworks they love the most! Meet new hire Amy Hanna, who joined our Development team, through her current favorite #nowonview in "Especially Terrific: New Paintings by Pat Perry".
Looking for long-weekend activities? Check out Zurashi/Slipped, an installation at #fwmoa by Rowland Ricketts, and then learn to dye your own fabrics in the #studio this week.
Staff at #fwmoa are playing favorites and picking works #nowonview. Education Intern Paikea Early chose a painting reminiscent of summer memories. Make a visit to #fwmoa part of your summer memories this long weekend to see Paikea's favorite painting by Michigan-based artist Pat Perry.
There's a lot of science behind borosilicate (and, really, all) glass sculpture! Delve into this #STEAM post and see the works #nowonview at #fwmoa!
It's always exciting day at #fwmoa when we get new artworks and we've had quite a few of them over the past few weeks. Take a peek at a new painting #nowonview in "From Their Indiana Home".
Printmaker Charles Meryon is best known for his series of etchings and verses: Eaux-fortes sur Paris (Etchings in Paris). Take a look at one in the #fwmoa permanent collection in this #treasuresfromthevault
We've compiled a list of blog posts highlighting artists who have exhibited throughout the Hoosier Salon's 100 year history. Whether you've seen the exhibition at #fwmoa and want to know more, or now know more and want to see the exhibition, we hope these posts help you find a new favorite Indiana artist!
It's wash day at #fwmoa, but we aren't doing laundry; instead, we're looking at artworks that use a wash to create contrast, texture, and color gradients. Learn how to spot this technique then put it to the test with works #nowonvie at #fwmoa.
