But you don't have to travel that far to experience incredible art. Thanks to the Asheville Art Museum, masterpieces usually available only in larger cities are only a short drive away. Artists have always used nature as a source of inspiration. Throughout history it has been interpreted and defined differently by each generation. The grandeur of landscape has been central to the American identity. The Asheville Art Museum presents modern views on this time-honored tradition by presenting "The Nature of Inspiration: Modern Masters from the Whitney Museum of American Art." This exhibit features 45 works that were influenced by the new styles emerging in America and Europe in the early part of the century. Abstracted forms were experimented with to symbolize aspects of nature. They also sought to emotionally charge their works and to signify the intangible. They represent the diversity of both the American landscape, and artistic understanding, which is as varied and as beautiful as the geography. Edward Hopper and Charles Burchfield capture nature through the eyes of realism. Both artists use landscape to evoke isolation, turmoil and loneliness. Burchfield tunes his work into the spirituality of nature. His beliefs, which are echoed in his work, reflect the 19th century Transcendentalism. Hopper portrays the conflict between the natural world and civilization. Their visions of pastoral beauty dramatically illustrate their personal ideas. After the pivotal Armory Show of 1913, artists began to incorporate their emotional responses to the subject. Marsden Hartley and John Marin pioneered the concept in America. The result was a more personal, more intimate genre. No longer under strict constraints of realism, the works were dynamic and new. The most abstract imagery in the show belongs to sculptor Alexander Calder, followed by intense images generated by Georgia O'Keeffe. Calder concentrates on the relation of process to the natural world. His sculptures are simple colorful forms that attempt to represent the expression of ideas, such as change and fluidity. O'Keeffe's work operates in the spiritual realm. Many of her works are magnified versions of flowers, and desert landscapes. By magnifying forms she blurs the line between realism and abstraction. Her respect for organic forms and her interest color mingle to form a spiritual communion with her environment. The Asheville Art Museum is also hosting a show by Chaim Gross, who is best Edward Hopper's 'Seven A.M.' known as a sculptor. The Fantasy Water- color series showcases another side of this renowned artist. Gross was born in the village of Wolowa in Eastern Austria. After World War I he and his brother moved to New York in search of a better life. The drawings on display represent Gross's attempt to cope with the death of his older sister Sarah, and her family, during the Holocaust. The exhibition also includes two sculptures and a sketchbook. The watercolors and drawings were done between 1948-52. They are surreal and bright, full of symbols associated with the Holocaust. Barbed wire, hands and windows form a wrenching scrapbook of Gross's loss. The works represent his intense pain and his attempt to heal. The Museum is also hosting a show by photographer Carrie Mae Weems. The Show, Recent Work, will run October 21- January 8. Weems specializes in conceptual photography. She explores gender relations, racism, and political issues. She draws on historical instances of injustice, to parallel contemporary instances of injustice. She challenges the viewer to ponder on past mistakes, and consider how they may have effected present situations. Recent Work contains three series, the Sea Island, Kitchen Table and Colored People. In the Sea Island she includes both found and staged images from the coast of Georgia and South Carolina. In the 17th century these islands served as a landing place for people brought over from West Africa, particularly from Angola. Descen- dents of these slaves still live in the area, though it is quickly becoming an over-developed tourist attraction. In Kitchen Table Weems plays the central character in each image. Sheportrays a range of emotion and experience between men and women, mothers and daughters, and friends. The viewer is at the head of the table a peeping torn of sorts to family conflicts. Issues over loyalty, money, politics, and self-worth are a few of the scenarios she represents. Colored People weaves together strands of race, sexuality, and cultural identity to form a dramatic tapestry of humor and sadness, sin and redemption in 20th century America. She connects all races to a shared history in this work.
