Louise Jones: "10,000 Flowers"

Sunday, August 11
11AM
Dennos Museum Center, NMC, TC
Art

This exhibit showcases new works by Jones drawing inspiration from still life & landscape traditions such as Trompe-l'œil (the illusion of three dimensional space), Vanitas (themes of mortality), scientific botanical illustration, & cityscapes. Best known for her floral murals, her new works on canvas mark a departure, delving further into our relationships with the natural world, seasons, & death. Also on display is Jones' "50 State Flowers" project, in which the flowers representing each US state are painted in crisp detail on individual miniature wood panels, which was created for an upcoming exhibition at the University of Michigan Museum of Art. See web site for hours.
