The Trojan War Years, Paintings by David Richardson
Opening October 6, 2010
This fall, the Ralls Collection will premier The Trojan War Years, a series of paintings by local artist David Richardson, inspired by his time living in Japan and his contact with the Kanji inscriptions used to mark temples, civic buildings, and businesses. As the first of three important series of works within the last decade, The Trojan War Years not only precedes the others, but it also continues to manifest. The show will be on view at the Ralls Collection through early December. |
