Abstract:

The Mary Duke Biddle Education Gallery will host an exhibition that will help answer how artists make their artworks. The exhibit will provide an in-depth look at a variety of techniques in sculpture and painting. The focus will be on some of the technical devices used by artists for bronze casting, stone carving, tempera painting on panel, and painting on canvas. Several famous artworks from artists such as Cecco di Pietro, Andrew Wythe, Elliot Daingerfield, Emile-Jean-Horace Vernet, Howard Mehring, Jo Davidson, and Fracesco Laurana will be displayed with explanations of how the artists created their masterpieces.
