Review: Burchfield exhibition showcases nature, both real and imagined in The Chautauquan Daily at Review by John Goodrich
As a Buffalo native, the love I have for my city only intensifies when I learn of its powerfully radiant past.
Though he was the first artist chosen for a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC in 1930, most people have never heard of Charles Burchfield. But a visit to this 2008 LEED-Certified museum, moved from Buffalo State College across the street, will change all that.

The exhibition features programs organized by 16 college- and university-based art museums, including the Burchfield Penney Art Center at SUNY Buffalo State, which underscore the breadth and range of art museum education today.
It’s a colorful program, called “Echoes of the Present” because all the arrangers are living. The music covers a lot of ground.
I think I am forgetting something I wrote early in the week, but I know that I helped Dietrich (or Olivier or Ulysses or whatever he calls himself) work on his bio for the barge project and then realized I should post it in the database, too.
At the forefront of music of the past 100+ years is the transformation of instrumental sound through the ascendancy of the role of percussion instruments and at the forefront of this transformation is Jan Williams.
For the first time in more than 60 years, the work of Charles E. Burchfield will be shown at the Chautauqua Institution when The Paintings and Writings of Charles E. Burchfield opens at the Strohl Art Center.
Two new profiles, both of them more or less from scratch for folks who don’t have much internet presence.
