Exhibition - F Luis Mora and the Expression of Beauty December 31, 2009

Moraaes affectionate depictions of domestic life, picturesque landscapes, spirited genre scenes, and richly detailed, romanticized images of women from history, myth and his own life are featured. These evocative works combine an intense awareness of his Spanish roots with a warm appreciation of urban and country life in the United States. This first comprehensive museum exhibition of the artist's work since the internationally-acclaimed exhibition in 1927 at the Comision Nacional de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires, brings together major pieces of his art, some from private collections that have never been exhibited before and others from prestigious institutions such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Butler Institute of American Art, the Newark Museum, and the Yale University Art Gallery.AdmissionMuseum Members: FreeAdults 16 and older: $5Seniors 65 and Older: $4Children under 16: Free
