"...the wailing...ushers us home...and there is a bellying on the land...’’ (mixed media on jacquard woven photo tapestry and custom vinyl wallpaper), by Ebony G. Patterson, in the show “Women Reframe American Landscape,’’ at the New Britain (Conn.) Museum of American Art, through March 31.

The museum says the show “features the work of nineteenth-century American artist Susie M. Barstow juxtaposed against the work of 13 internationally acclaimed, contemporary female artists. Many of the 13 artists made site-specific installations for this show that, much like the exhibition's title suggests, reframes the concept of land and the ‘landscape’ in artwork.’’
