“Traveler’s Rest:
Paintings of Exploration
and Loss”
is an exhibit by
two explorers, though one
explores the sights and
sounds of a foreign country
while the other turns inward
to explore her own feelings.
Well-known Richmond
artist Beverly Perdue goes
abroad to explore the
countryside of Tuscany and
the watery byways of
Venice with images painted
en plein air. In her “Empty
Chair” paintings, Patrice
Reese looks within herself to
explore the feelings and
memories evoked by a sister’
s untimely death. Although
they explore different areas,
the artists approach
painting from a similar
point of view. Both push the
envelope with color and
design; neither believes in
“playing it safe”. Both feel
that rules are made to be
broken, and that sometimes
rule-breaking is the only
way to achieve the desired
effect.
The exhibit runs November
1 through December 31,
2011.
