French Impressionism and the Northwest
Contact: Hillary Ryan, 253.272.4258 ext 3051 [email protected] Tacoma Art Museum presents New Exhibition Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Their Circle: French Impressionism and the Northwest IMAGES AVAILABLE August 2, 2019 (Tacoma, WA)— Opening on September 28, Tacoma Art Museum will present Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Their Circle: French Impressionism and the Northwest, a new exhibition that examines how the work of French Impressionists and their immediate precursors made their way into Northwest public and private collections. It also will include selected paintings by American and Northwest artists to illustrate the spread of Impressionism across the country. “The purpose of this exhibition is deeply connected to the same passion that drove the French Impressionists, to transform the way we see,” said David F. Setford, TAM’s Executive Director and curator of this exhibition. “It does this in two ways. First, it puts rarely seen works from TAM’s European art collection into context and allows for an expanded visitor learning opportunity. In addition, it is also the first time that these Impressionist works from museums and private collections in the Northwest have been seen together. It will provide a lasting resource about French Impressionism and its historical impact for curators and collectors in our region and beyond.” Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Their Circle: French Impressionism and the Northwest was organized and curated by the Tacoma Art Museum, and includes approximately fifty (50) works of art. The exhibition is accompanied by a small publication including essays by Setford and TAM curator Margaret Bullock, as well as an online listing of French Impressionist works currently in Northwest public collections. -
Audubon/RYAN!
Contact: Hillary Ryan, 253.272.4258 ext 3051 [email protected] Tacoma Art Museum presents New Exhibition The Naturalist & The Trickster: Audubon/RYAN! IMAGES AVAILABLE January 7, 2020 (Tacoma, WA)— On February 1, 2020, Tacoma Art Museum will open The Naturalist & The Trickster: Audubon/RYAN!. Although centuries apart, artists John James Audubon and RYAN! Feddersen draw inspiration from animals and the natural world to create compelling work that urges us to better understand the human impact on the environment. As 2020 marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, TAM presents this exhibition which explores themes of animals, environmentalism, and conservation. “Juxtaposing these two artists will present a very immersive and thought-provoking experience regarding perceptions of the natural world and relationships between humans and the environment,” said Faith Brower, TAM’s Haub Curator of Western American Art. “During Audubon’s life his prints were one of the ways that scientific information from the American West could be shared and studied. His respect and concern for the natural world clearly marks him as one of the forefathers of the modern conservation and environmental movements,” noted John James Audubon (1785–1851) Brower. Prairie Wolf (Canis latrans) Plate LXXI, The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America hand colored lithograph, Printed by J.T. Bowen, Philadelphia, 1845 35 x 41 inches framed Collection of Huntsville Museum of Art Tacoma-based, RYAN! Feddersen, an enrolled member of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation and a contemporary mixed media artist, explores the character of Coyote, the trickster, as a lens to examine current events. Feddersen’s 75-foot mural encourages collaborative drawing with crayons cast in the shape of coyote bones which further links the community to Coyote’s story. -

Forgotten Stories Northwest Public Art of the 1930S
Contact: Hillary Ryan, 253.272.4258 ext 3051 [email protected] Tacoma Art Museum presents New Exhibition Forgotten Stories: Northwest Public Art of the 1930s IMAGES AVAILABLE November 15, 2019 (Tacoma, WA)— Opening on February 22, 2020, Tacoma Art Museum will present Forgotten Stories: Northwest Public Art of the 1930s. During the economic hard times of the 1930s, U.S. government art projects under the WPA and other agencies created a wealth of public art and supported art communities across the country. In the Northwest hundreds of artists were employed and thousands of artworks created but their stories are almost unknown. The exhibition will offer an extensive overview of the bounty and variety of work created in our region and bring forgotten treasures back to view. “The extent of the federal art projects in the Northwest is surprising,” said Margaret Bullock, TAM’s interim Chief Curator and Curator of Collections and Special Exhibitions. “We’ve long thought that the impact of the work was limited but, research has now shown that the projects in the Northwest were widespread and highly productive employing over 600 artists resulting in thousands of artworks and offering art making opportunities to hundreds of thousands of Northwesterners.” Virginia Darcé (born Portland, Oregon, 1910; died Los Angeles, TAM’s exhibition brings together a California, 1985) The Market, 1938 wide variety of the artworks Tempera on board created in Idaho, Montana, 22 ½ x 30 ½ inches Portland Art Museum, Portland, Oregon, Courtesy of the Fine Arts Oregon, and Washington.
