Milton Avery's Vermont

July 2-November 6, 2016 - The works in the exhibition examines Avery's artistic process, featuring pencil sketches executed en plein air, wonderfully fresh watercolors that were based on these sketches and executed in Vermont, and many of his major oil paintings that were drawn from these sources and typically completed during the winter months in his New York studio. Avery's Vermont works provide insight into the trajectory of his stylistic development during the fertile decade leading up to what are perhaps his best-known works, created after he joined Paul Rosenberg’s gallery in 1943.
