Abstract:
An exhibition by draftsman and painter Rico Lebrun will be on display through November in the Twentieth Century Gallery. Lebrun has been little studied since his death in 1964, but a recent revival of interest in figurative art, religious content, and expressionist paint handling has brought him back to the spotlight. Lebrun’s work often featured themes such as man’s inhumanity and man’s sacrifice. The work and the artists are described in preview of the exhibition curated from the Museum's permanent collection.

Carpenter explains why the exhibition was created, how the artists were selected, how the artists’ materials help them achieve their goals, and what drawing offers the viewer that painting or sculpture does not.
