Echoes & Late Shadows: The Larger World of Southern Impressionism

A retrospective of lively work from the New Orleans artist 
Ida Rittenberg Kohlmeyer became one of the most prominent abstract artists in the South and started her career late, turning to art in her late thirties in search of a deeper meaning and purpose in life. She was primarily known as a New Orleans artist. She moved from an early figurative style in paintings of children to Abstract-Expressionism, influenced by a summer’s study in Provincetown, Massachusetts, with Hans Hofmann. In her lifetime she had major exhibitions at the National Museum of Women, the Mint Museum (Charlotte, NC), New Orleans Museum of Art and the High Museum of Art.

Individual Artists

Published in conjunction with the 1997 exhibition held at the Morris Museum of Art, August, Georga. Following an introductory essay, color reproductions (many of them accompanied by commentary on the artist) present late 19th century Alaskan works which illustrate the frontier myth; more contemporary works which offer proof of an amazing level of intuition and artistic creativity in a very tiny demographic arena; and finally, the commissioned efforts of Bill C. Ray which document the customs and existence of the native peoples of Alaska. 10.25x10.15". Distributed by the U. of Washington Press. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
