Focusing on the artist’s body of work over the last 20 years, John Newsom: Nature’s Course presents large-scale, richly textured, oil on canvas paintings of flora and fauna.
The exhibition will include the brand-new, 9 x 18 foot Nature’s Course and Homecoming, another new painting referencing Oklahoma.
Newsom’s work layers and combines elements of Abstract Expressionism, minimalist geometric shapes and hyperrealistic representations of animals to create complex allegories of the natural world. The mid-career retrospective of the Oklahoma-raised and New York-based artist runs March 24 to Aug. 15.
