SUMMARY:Opening Reception of "Making his Mark in Connecticut: The Creative Process of F. Luis Mora"
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to the opening reception of “Making his Mark in Connecticut: The Creative Process of F. Luis Mora.” To commemorate the U.S. Semiquincentennial\, the HMA presents this exhibition\, which explores the themes of the America 250 | CT Commission through the lens of an Uruguayan-born artist who settled in Gaylordsville\, CT. Featuring never-before-seen preparatory drawings alongside finished paintings\, this exhibition tells the origin story of the first Hispanic member of the National Academy of Design and his legacy in his adopted state. \nThis exhibition is curated by Dr. Cynthia Roznoy with key loans from the collection of Benjamin Ortiz and Victor P. Torchia\, Jr. and George Wall. The exhibition also includes loans from major museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Yale University Art Gallery\, the Mattatuck Museum\, the Florence Griswold Museum\, the Georgia Museum of Art\, and the Rockwell Museum. \nFree and open to the public; light refreshments served.\nThis project is supported by funding through CT Humanities\, the Wyeth Foundation for American Art\, and America 250 | CT. Special thanks to lead donor\, Elizabeth Fray.
