Plattsburgh State Art Museum Opens Exhibition of Drawings by Rockwell Kent
Rockwell Kent’s philosophy about the character of his drawings is evident in many of the works selected for this exhibition.
While he would actively sketch images in thumbnail size as well as full scale, once he found the image he was looking for, he would work a drawing down to a single line that would illustrate mass, form, and emotion.
The exhibition was organized by Cecilia Esposito, Museum Collections Specialist, from the extensive Plattsburgh Kent Collection..........

Japanese Lacquer Buddhist Altar donated to the collection by Carolyn Bardos of Lynne, New Hampshire, has been authenticated by a curator from the Smithsonian Institution, Freer Gallery of Washington, D.C., and dated approximately in the Edo period mid 18th century.
