From the Archives: Warhol, Judd and others Weigh In on Matisse in Art in America in celebration of the Museum of Modern Art's exhibition Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs.

After a detour into social realism, Charles Burchfield returned to his first love, landscape painting, but with new techniques that let the viewer partake of the artist’s mystical, multi-sensory experience.

Co-curated by Audrey Lewis, at the Brandywine, and Nancy Weekly, at Buffalo, N.Y.’s Burchfield Penny Art Center, where the show will travel in December, it is a charming retrospective of more than 50 large watercolors and an ample selection of supporting drawings by the Ohio-born landscape painter who made the Buffalo area his adopted home.

The Graycliff Conservancy will present three of the foremost experts on garden and landscape design of the early 20th century in a special roundtable at the Burchfield-Penney Art Center tomorrow. 

Peter Ramos is part of M&T Second Friday at the Burchfield Penney on October 10 from 5:30-7:30 pm.

Art enthusiasts and fans of famed American watercolorist Charles E. Burchfield will thoroughly enjoy and appreciate the Burchfield Penney Art Center, its exhibits noted as the world’s largest collection of Burchfield’s work and the only museum exclusively dedicated to the art and artists of western New York.
