Clark Art Presents First Sunday Free: Lights, Camera Landscape

Print Story | Email Story
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute First Sunday Free series continues on Sunday, Dec. 1 from 1 to 4 pm. 
 
December's theme is "Lights, Camera, Landscape!"
 
According to a press release:
 
Contemporary artist Abelardo Morell engages with history, place, and nature in his colorful images, reflecting Claude Monet and John Constable's influence on him. Artists often draw inspiration from each other's work, and we do, too! Taking inspiration from the layers in Morell's works, experiment with creating transparent drawings that can overlap in surprising ways. Then, from the ground up, document place and perspective through a collaborative photo wall.
 
Be sure to pick up a gallery guide and explore the connections between Morell's photographs and Monet and Constable's paintings. Additionally, check out the special selection of photographs from the Clark's collection at the Print Room Pop-Up installation on view from 11 am–1 pm at the Manton Study Center for Works on Paper.
 
Free admission all day. Special activities in the Michael Conforti Pavilion from 1 to 4 pm. 
 
Family programs are supported by Allen & Company.
