Programs & Events

Enjoy the best contemporary realist paintings from the holdings of The Columbus Museum in a new context. Anchored by the work of Bo Bartlett, the selection fans out from other local artists like Lamar Baker, Henry Nordhausen, and Dale Kennington to encompass nationally recognized painters Janet Fish, Wes Hempel, and Steven Assael. As a survey in miniature, the exhibition provides visual evidence of contemporary realism’s stylistic development since the 1950s. Light hors d’oeuvres will be served.
