New ARC Approved Atelier®

5 October, 2022

ARC is pleased to welcome AdA (Art d'Apprendre) as new ARC Approved Atelier®!

AdA offers workshops and a full-time three year skill based training art program.

For AdA founder Joke Frima, it takes skill-based training to create a realistic depiction of nature. It is her mission to disprove the myth that art cannot be learned and that one only needs great talent or aptitude to become an excellent painter. Art can and needs to be learned.

Victorian Masterpieces from the Museo de Arte de Ponce, Puerto Rico

4 October, 2022

This special installation will feature five Victorian masterpieces from the collection of the Museo de Arte de Ponce in Puerto Rico. The exceptional loans include the iconic Flaming June by Frederic Leighton, John Everett Millais’s The Escape of a Heretic, 1559, and Edward Burne-Jones’s Small Briar Rose series (The Prince Enters the Wood, The King and His Court, and The Sleeping Beauty, all painted 1871–73).

The paintings will be displayed in the galleries for 19th- and early-20th-century European paintings and sculpture, presented in dialogue with other works by artists at The Met. Most notably, the presentation will bring together Leighton’s Flaming June with Lachrymae (1894–95, The Met), two of his last monumental oil paintings. Although the two works have been in several exhibitions together, this is the first time that they will be displayed side by side.

Since the Museo de Arte de Ponce has been closed for repair following devastating earthquakes in 2020, this partnership allows the public to continue viewing some of their most important artworks while also showcasing meaningful connections with The Met's collection.

The works will be at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1000 5th Avenue, NY, NY 10028 until February 2023.

The Tudors: Art and Majesty in Renaissance England

2 October, 2022

England under the volatile Tudor dynasty was a thriving home for the arts. An international community of artists and merchants, many of them religious refugees, navigated the high-stakes demands of royal patrons, including England’s first two reigning queens. Against the backdrop of shifting political relationships with mainland Europe, Tudor artistic patronage legitimized, promoted, and stabilized a series of tumultuous reigns, from Henry VII’s seizure of the throne in 1485 to the death of his granddaughter Elizabeth I in 1603. The Tudor courts were truly cosmopolitan, boasting the work of Florentine sculptors, German painters, Flemish weavers, and Europe’s best armorers, goldsmiths, and printers, while also contributing to the emergence of a distinctly English style. This exhibition will trace the transformation of the arts in Tudor England through more than 100 objects—including iconic portraits, spectacular tapestries, manuscripts, sculpture, and armor—from both The Met collection and international lenders.

The exhibition runs from October 10, 2022 - January 28, 2023 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1000 5th Ave, NY NY 10028.

A Marriage of Arts & Crafts: Evelyn & William De Morgan

4 October, 2022

Arts and Crafts pottery maker William De Morgan and Pre-Raphaelite painter Evelyn De Morgan lived in harmony as married artists in Victorian England.

William De Morgan created brilliantly colored tiles, pots, and plates with distinctive, shimmering lustre-ware surfaces. Evelyn De Morgan took inspiration from Botticelli to create richly symbolic paintings of modern subjects. This visually stunning exhibition makes its American debut at the Delaware Art Museum.

The exhibition runs from October 22, 2022 to February 19, 2023 at the Delaware Art Museum, 2301 Kentmere Pkwy, Wilmington, DE 19806.

Making American Artists: Stories from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, 1776–1976

5 October, 2022

With over one hundred of the most acclaimed and iconic pieces in American art on display, the exhibition takes viewers on a journey across time, medium, and identity.

Organized by theme—portraiture, history painting, still life, genre scenes, and landscape—and not chronology, the exhibition affords the opportunity to enjoy familiar works in a new light and find new favorites.

Each of the featured artists’ careers were shaped by PAFA, whether through their education or the exhibition and display of their work. Making American Artists critically re-examines PAFA’s legacy while shedding light on its continuing role in shaping American art of the twenty-first century.

The exhibition runs from October 6, 2022 - April 4, 2023 at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art, 118-128 N Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19102.

Vermeer's Secrets

3 October, 2022

Only about 35 paintings by Johannes Vermeer are known today. The National Gallery owns four works by or attributed to this beloved 17th-century Dutch artist: Woman Holding a Balance, A Lady Writing, Girl with the Red Hat, and Girl with a Flute.

For decades, conservators, scientists, and curators at the National Gallery have conducted research into this quartet of paintings as well as two enigmatic works that are now considered to be 20th-century forgeries. Vermeer’s Secrets draws on 50 years of imaging technology and microscopic examination to illuminate—and sometimes revolutionize—our understanding of how Vermeer achieved the compelling effects of his paintings’ light-filled moments of quiet solitude.

In this behind-the-scenes glimpse, the National gallery of Art reveals their findings about these paintings and the artist who made them.

The exhibition runs from October 8, 2022 to January 8, 2023 at the National Gallery of Art, 6th St and Constitution Ave NW, Washington DC 20565.

Sargent and Spain

4 October, 2022

Celebrated as the leading society portraitist of his era, John Singer Sargent influenced a generation of American painters. His personal captivation with Spain resulted in a remarkable body of work that documents his extensive travels from the north to the south and to the island of Majorca. Over three decades Sargent responded to the country’s rich culture by producing landscapes and marine scenes, pictures of everyday life, and architectural studies, as well as sympathetic portrayals of the locals he encountered.

For the first time, Sargent and Spain presents approximately 120 dazzling oils, watercolors, and drawings, many of which are rarely exhibited. Also featured from the artist’s travels are some 28 never-before published photographs, several almost certainly taken by Sargent himself.

The exhibition takes place at the National Gallery of Art, 6th St and Constitution Ave NW, Washington, DC 20004.

Parallel Disasters

3 October, 2022

Laguna College of Art + Design’s BFA program in Drawing + Painting is proud to present Parallel Disasters, an exhibition of paintings.

Tornados engulfing the skies above familiar suburban landscapes, specters of the Confederacy hovering over shells of spacious single family homes; such fantastic and haunting scenes characterize Parallel Disasters, a two-artist exhibition of paintings by John Brosio and Perin Mahler, both alumni of LCAD. Rooted in crisis and speculation, both personal and social, Brosio and Mahler’s paintings peer into unchartered territories rife with new systems of logic, possibility, and risk.

The exhibition runs from October 6 -November 23, 2022 at LCAD Gallery, 374 Ocean Ave., Laguna Beach, CA 92651.
