ROMANTICALLY MODERN : Pacific Northwest Landscapes

Curated by Barbara Matilsky, Curator of Art, Whatcom Museum

This exhibition highlights the rich legacy of landscape painting in the Pacific Northwest. Works reflect the artist's search for a spiritual experience that was called "the sublime" in nineteenth century Romantic art and literature. At the same time, the twentieth-century artists featured here interpret nature and express their emotional response to the landscape through modernist styles. All paintings are drawn from the Whatcom Museum's extensive collection of Northwest Art.
