The Emerson Gallery at Hamilton College will open the summer exhibition season with Selections from Hamilton Collects American Art from June 17 through August 4, 2002.
Highlights include works by William Glackens, Rockwell Kent, Raphael Soyer, Marsden Hartley, Charles Burchfield, and others, focusing on twentieth century paintings. Paintings on display are from the collections of Hamilton College friends and alumni, Stephen and Mary Craven, and John B. Root. The selection of works features the artists of the Ashcan school and continues two of the three themes from Hamilton Collects American Art, landscape and portraiture.
The exhibition is free and open to the public.
