Botanicals: Environmental Expressions in Art, the Alisa and Isaac M. Sutton Collection Page Four |
Isaac Sutton (center) explains why he became interested in collecting contemporary botanical art.
Susan Frei Nathan of Susan Frei Nathan Fine Works on Paper shares with the attendees the importance of private and public collections and why they hope that this exhibition will garner a wider acceptance of botanical portraiture as an art form.
Kelly Leahy Radding signs a copy of the exhibition catalogue for Seth Beckerman, an admirer of her watercolor, Red Pine with Black-capped Chickadee, 2002. In the display case are catalogues of exhibitions that influenced Isaac Sutton’s eye for collecting botanical art. (Note for future gallery visitors: please, please, please do not lean on the UV filtered plexiglas vitrine of our NEW exhibition case!)
