CALENDARS A R IS & ENIE.RIA N ~EN I Museum features American_ landscape art By JOHN BRENT

erhaps the single most impressive thing about the p current art exhibit at the State Museum is the diversity of the works ·on display, Linked by a common theme, the show is entitled, "20th Century American Landscapes from the Metropolitan Museum of Art," and reveals through a collection of nearly · 40 paintings how various artists beginning in 1907 and continuing through the early 1990s, have responded to and interpreted various aspects of the American landscape, A number of ~egions of the country are represented and the overall display creates an impression of the country that moves around both geographically and through time. This is the sixth installment of the Fleet Great Art Exhibition and Education Program, which brings art from various New York City museums to Albany, "American Landscapes," is the Met's second contribution to the series. 'This extraordinary group of paintings from the Metropolitan Museum of Art typifies the great American love for the land," said Mark Schaming, director of exhibitions for the State Museum, ''These great works represent the diverse ways of both making art and looking at America. The paintings glorify the natural world, are imbued with the unique character of our cities and speak to a very American way of looking at the wodd." Some of the artists use a highly representational technique and briog an almost photographic realism to their subject, while other artists create more suggestive or abstract images in their response to the landscapes they attempt to capture. Eugene Speicher's "Morning light," captures the soft light of early day as the artist records'a basically realistic (although the technique is clearly influenced by the French Impressionists) view of a rural landscape, This work along with Louis Eilshemius' "Landscape, Binghamton, New York," both painted in 1907, show a love for the land as the artists glorify nature. By the late 20s and early 30s, the focus of the artists seems to change from natural vistas to paintings that show man's relationship to the land. Frederic Grant's 'The Homestead," and Thomas Hart Benton's ''Cotton Pickers, Georgia;" seem to have a reverence for those who live on and work the land. As the U.S. changed more and more from an agrarian nation to an industrial one, these artists seem to respond, almost nostalgically, to a way of life that was disappearing, even at the time they created the works, This concept is even more evident in Paul Sample's 1936 painting, "Janitor's Holiday," A charming.farm landscape with a young girl on horseback creates the background for the janitor who rests under a tree. A closer look reveals that the janitor, who should be relaxing, seems to be tense and anxious. A response to the harsh economic realities of the Great Depression, perhaps, or maybe a sad reminder·of a way of life that was vanishing froni the American scene. 'The Monongahela River Valley," painted by John Kane in 1931, shows the emerging landscape as the country becomes more industrialized. Smoke stacks, factories and rail yards dominate the foreground while the rolling hills take a secondary position in the background. Whether one looks at this painting as a celebration of America's growing industrial strength or as a sad commentary on the destruction of the natural order, one thing is clear, a subjective response can . be brought to various works by the viewer. inflluenced by the French Impressionists, artist Eugene Speicher's "Morning Light," pai11ted More recent works by Jack Beal, Louisa Chase and James McGarrell have , shows a reverence lor nature. used landscapes to suggest an inner, sometimes disturbing, psychological landscape, · ·painted in 1923 uses bold shapes and strokes to evoke a sense of the subject rather than In Just as the subject matter of the paintings are diverse, so are the techniques employed a litera! realistic record of a moment "Mt Katahdin, Maine, No. 2," painted in 1939- by the artists. Some of the works, through the use of color, shapes and simplicity create 40 by Marsden Hartley, uses a deceptively childlike technique to create a feeling of awe in response 'to the landscape. · a more abstract view of the landscape. Walt Kuhn's ''The Willow Tree and the Cow.'' Fairfield Porter's ''The Kittiwake and the John Walton," painted in 1962 reveal an overlapping of realistic and abstract techniques. Pleasing to the eye as an arrangement of colors and shapes, the painting can also be enjoyed for its tranquil seaside subject. An interesting aspect of the exhibit is the contribution of women to landscape art Works by Marjorie Portnow, Helen Torr, Georgia O'Keeffe, Loren Maciver, Grace Hartigan, !delle Weber and Louisa Chase are on display. The O'Keeffe work is a horizontal painting of mountains with only a sliver of foreground at the bottom and thin strip of sky at the top. By minimizing the context in which the mountains appear, they are rendered almost as an abstraction of shapes and tone. One can almost see the figure of a reclining woman in the soft lines and highlights and shadows of the mountains. • · · John Kane, Joseph Stella, Max Weber and Rafael Ferrer are all artists who were • born outside the United States but their response to the American landscape has demonstrated the appeal of the subject for artist who represent other cultures, "Earth, sky, water imd vegetation are the key elements in any landscape painting," said Usa Mintz Messinger, assistant curator of the department of modern art at the Met, "But as the works in this exhibition show, modern artists have employed this traditional subject for many different purposes- to express personal feelings, cultural observations and political points of view." The exhibit runs though Oct 14. The New York State Museum is located on Madison Avenue in Albany and is open 7 days a week from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. A donation of$2 per person or $5 per family is suggested. There is free parking in the lot next to the With clearly defined colors and a high-contrast image, "The Cove," painted by Fairfield museum after 3 p.m. on weekdays and all day on weekends.
