LEE MAYER: LOST SUMMER
NOVEMBER 7, 2022 – MARCH 17, 2023
PATRICIA THOMPSON ALUMNI + SKYLIGHT GALLERIES
Ringling College Galleries is proud to present Lost Summer; a collection of landscape paintings created by Ringling College Alumna, Lee Mayer (Commercial Art 72’). For thousands of years, the human race has been hooked by landscape art whatever the medium, although it only became a recognized genre of art in the late 15th century. As nineteenth century Swiss essayist, Henri Frederic Amiel, wrote, “Landscape is a state of mind”. In this collection of small and mid-scale paintings, Mayer explores the light, nature, harmony, and color of the natural beauty of Canadian summers.
WHEN:
Opening Reception + Art Walk, November 11, 5-8pm.
