Portrait Exhibit comes to the Thorne Friday

From Jackie Hooper, Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery:

Portraits and other figurative works in the Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery collection will be displayed Friday, June 3 through Sunday, July 24. The “Figuratively Speaking” exhibit includes paintings, prints, and photographs by Corneille, Francisco Goya, Alexander James, Rockwell Kent, Robert Mapplethorpe, Fritz Scholder, and others.

Exhibit curator Stephen J. Lucey, art history, drew works from the Thorne’s permanent collection.

“Figuratively Speaking” will reopen September 2 to October 2, to coincide with the opening of “Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity,” an exhibit of paintings, prints, photographs, and video which explores American self image.

The gallery is open during June and July from noon to 5 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, 3 to 8 p.m. Friday, and noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. It is closed Monday and Tuesday.
