The Leonardo Series: Drawings by Anthony Panzera Based on the Work of Leonardo da Vinci features 65 drawings based on Leonardo da Vinci’s notes and drawings on the human figure contained in Leonardo’s original notebooks. Panzera’s drawings and related information sheets illustrate selected entries from Leonardo’s theories on the relative proportions of the head, torso, whole body, leg and foot, and arm and hand. These draw- ings exemplify the humanistic orientation and intellectual concerns of Leonardo da Vinci. The Leonardo Series is the product of Panzera’s 30-year study of Leonardo’s work as well as a lifetime spent teaching and drawing from the human figure. The exhibition is on display through April 15. Eugene Ludins: An American Fantasist offers a retrospective view of the 70-year ca- reer of Eugene Ludins, a Woodstock painter of realist and fantastical landscapes, provocative “Family Portrait,” by Eugene Ludins. political allegories, and insightful portraits. Beginning with his residency at the Maverick 1934, oil on canvas. colony in Woodstock in 1929 until the time of his death in 1996, Ludins was a leading member of the Hudson Valley arts community. This exhibition’s sixty paintings, thirty-five drawings, twenty sketchbooks, archival photographs and memorabilia, and two works by Ludins’s wife, sculptor Hannah Small, animate the life of an artist who was an American original and also emblematic of his time. The exhibition will be on view from February 11 to July 15. The Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art is located on the campus of SUNY New Paltz.

    THE HUDSON RIVER SCHOOL OF ARTIST The following is a list of painters in the Hudson River School, a midth-century American art . a Hudson River School artist, and the two painted similar subjects. Sister Julie Hart Beers (Kempson) was also a landscape artist of this school. A rusted silo looms over a parking lot where he had seen dirt roads and marshland. Albert Bierstadt painted mountain landscapes on enormous canvases which included pictures of wild scenery filled with mists and clouds. It was promoted as a single-picture attraction—i. The Hudson River School origins date back to these romantic and nationalism ages of America. Fully illustrated, this website brings a personal dimension to the artists of the 19th century. The Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, Connecticut houses one of the largest collections of paintings by artists of the Hudson River School. So where Cropsey saw unkempt groves and choppy currents buffeting sailboats from a window there, we consoled ourselves with views of not much more than a fenced-off duck pond in the shadow of a street overpass. However, a new American school of landscape painting was about to emerge along with a new form of public entertainment — the art museum. Cole painted pictures as depicted by the novelist. If Cole is rightly designated the founder of the school, then its beginnings appear with his arrival in New York City in Advertisement People fishing there were staring at the water and their rods.

Mark Lasalle Fine Art director’s statement d N MAY 2010 THE THOMAS COLE NATIONAL HISTORic SITE opened the first known exhibition to focus Isolely on the women artists associated with the Hudson River School, the nineteenth-century land- scape painting movement. Considering all the attention that has been given to this art movement in recent decades, it is certainly time that the names of these women become better known. The fact that there were women artists who were inspired by the landscape during the same years as Thomas Cole, Asher Durand, and Frederic Church is a story that needs to be told, and we are so pleased to bring their fascinating lives and work to the public. Their landscape paintings, and the stories behind them, speak to these women’s perseverance, triumph, heartbreak, and even their sense of humor about it all. One young woman was forbidden to create art, and her drawings were burned by her stepmother. Another was conducting her art career while raising her children as a single mother. Yet another climbed “all the principal peaks of the Catskills, Adirondacks, and White Mountains, as well as those of the Alps, Tyrol, and Black Forest, often tramping twenty-five miles a day, and sketching as well, often in the midst of a blinding snow- storm,” according to an 1889 article.1 And all this in the sort of clothing we today would not consider practical.
