“I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape.

Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn’t show.”

—Andrew Wyeth, American painter.

As we move toward winter, a certain quietude falls over us. It is time for contemplative thought and a different perspective. We dream and we reflect. Then, as the Solstice arrives, and days lengthen, a new vision begins. Sometimes it takes the eyes of an artist to usher us into this quieter world. We at Washington Printmakers Gallery offer up our visions of this introspective time as we invite you to celebrate this season and its sense of promise.

August is a golden month. Many have left home and are exploring our country, whether in National Parks, at the seashore, or in other hidden corners of this nation. It is a time to reflect on the beauty and complexity of America. Woody Guthrie’s famous song, This Land is Your Land, speaks of this beauty with his iconic words, which Bruce Springsteen once said comprise “the greatest song ever written about America.” Our printmakers and photographers offer their views of Guthrie’s ballad, each from a personal perspective. This rich collection of images promises to make you reflect on our country’s glory as we look deeper into our souls."

Opening Reception: Saturday, April 1, 3-5pm
