We were happy to have attended the Hyde Collection

Hyde House and the Permanent Collection

as well as the Venetian Vistas Exhibit from January 20,2024 to April 21, 2024..

“The city of Venice, with its grand canals, distinctive architecture, and romantic charm, has held a continuous allure for artists over the centuries. Traveling to the city from all over the world, artists attempted to convey Venice’s luminosity in paint or record the details of its architecture in line. More recently, artists have turned to contemporary mediums such as photography to capture the unique city. Venetian Vistas focuses on the works of art produced by those artists who ventured to Venice during the period from the eighteenth through the twenty-first century. The exhibition explores the various approaches taken by artists, identifying key monuments in the city of Venice that were frequently depicted and the interest of many artists in capturing the effects of light, water, and reflections.

Organized by and exclusively on view at The Hyde Collection, Venetian Vistas features works from The Hyde’s permanent collection, along with a number of loans from museums around the northeast.” ~ Per The Hyde Collection

Some of our favorites from the Hyde House, Permanent Collections and Venetian Vistas can be found below. We recommend others attend the Hyde Permanent Collection, and tour the Hyde House -

per The Hyde Collection: “The Hyde is one of the Northeast’s exceptional small art museums with distinguished collections of European and American art. Comparable to that of a major metropolitan museum, the core collection, acquired by Museum founders Louis and Charlotte Hyde, includes works by such artists as Sandro Botticelli, El Greco, Rembrandt, Peter Paul Rubens, Edgar Degas, Georges Seurat, Pablo Picasso, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and American artists Thomas Eakins, Childe Hassam, Winslow Homer, and James McNeill Whistler. The Museum’s collection of Modern and Contemporary art features works by artists including Josef Albers, Dorothy Dehner, Sam Gilliam, Adolph Gottlieb, Grace Hartigan, Ellsworth Kelly, Sol LeWitt, George McNeil, Robert Motherwell, Ben Nicholson, Robert Rauschenberg, and Bridget Riley. Today, The Hyde offers significant national and international exhibitions, and a packed schedule of events that help visitors to experience art in new ways.” Please find out more about the Hyde Collection by going to this link: https://www.hydecollection.org/about/
