Back to Reality, More and Less: Contemporary Ohio Landscape


July 30 - October 17, 1998

Curated by Sara Johnson, director of the Southern Ohio Museum and Cultural Center, Back to Reality, More and Less: Contemporary Ohio Landscape, offers more than 60 drawings and paintings from 15 of Ohio's finest landscape artists, both emerging and established. Individually distinctive but joined in their use of realism as a basis for contemporary artistic expression, the works provide a journey from straightforward documentation to abstraction, with side trips into impressionism and surrealism.
