Adult Enrichment Series
Historic Art of the Americas
Sixteenth through nineteenth century Spanish Colonial Viceregal
paintings, sculpture and objects from the Americas
Presented at the Peyton Wright Gallery
Thursday, February 2, 6:00 P.M.
As part of their continuing Devotional Arts exhibits, Peyton Wright Gallery has invited us to a private viewing of the Historic Art of the Americas with a curatorial discussion by gallery owner, John Wright Schaefer.
The collection features New World paintings, sculpture, silver, and furnishings from the Spanish Colonial period that represent the struggle between the complex traditions and belief systems of the Spanish and indigenous people. The exhibition depicts a time and place that was shaped by a particular kind of devotion. The collection showcased in the Historic Arts of the Americas is without equal in a commercial venue in the United States and includes works from the collection of Dr. Jose Neistein, which will be exhibited for the first time.
Free and open to the public. For information, call 982-5619.
A light supper will be served at the gallery.
Free parking at the gallery off Paseo de Peralta, just north of Palace Avenue.
