Atmospheric Perspective ran from September 12 - November 6th 2022

Atmospheric Perspective, a historic painting term, refers to the effect the atmosphere has on the appearance of an object as it recedes into the distance. As distance increases, contrast and detail decrease, and colors of the object become less saturated and hazy. In this group exhibition, contemporary artists from all over the U.S. contemplate this idea as some render the landscape in a traditional sense, and others posit atmospheric perspective as metaphor for thinking about our environmental moment from varied vantage points. 

Guests were invited to come and celebrate and grieve and contemplate and wonder at these many visual perspectives and join the conversation about what living in and caring for our world, together, could look like.
