One of the curators of DACO's latest exhibit, Maria Burke, will trace the evolution of naturalist artists and how they have paid homage to the beauty of nature throughout history.
Trace the evolution of the naturalist artist and witness how these visionary creators have paid homage to the beauty of nature throughout history. From traversing the realms of devotional art forms to methods used in illustration, sculpture and preservation, learn how artists have documented discoveries found in nature. You’ll also get an up-close look at how these mediums are used today by Ohio-based naturalists and artists alike, as seen in the exhibition, It’s an Honor to be Here: Ohio Nature Artists in Their Natural State.
It's an Honor to Be Here: Ohio Nature Artists in Their Natural State-September 30-December 31 at The Decorative Arts Center of Ohio
Exploring the eclectic backgrounds and relationships between artists and the natural world, It’s an Honor to Be Here inspires curiosity and respect for the natural diversity found throughout Ohio and the talented artists that dedicate their craft to interpreting it. Ohio-based artists from all corners of the state will share their interpretations of the breadth of nature that surrounds us all and share stories that will inspire a new generation of creators and environmental stewards. Using a variety of media, from traditional painting to taxidermy, paper sculpture, video and fiber arts, this exhibition will engage audiences of all ages and backgrounds and highlight the incredible work that Ohio artists offer.
