“June, 2020”(oil on linen), by David Curtis, in the Guild of Boston Artists’ show “Nature’s Refrain,’’ through July 31
The guild says that the show “is a reflection and celebration of the restorative power of nature,’’ especially as we go through this pandemic.
“Throughout history, artists have been inspired by nature during times of stress, just as the members of The Guild of Boston Artists have during this pandemic. Although the country is slowly reopening, many are still self-isolating and staying away from parks and other outdoor places. ‘Nature's Refrain’ offers a way for viewers to get the healing power of nature in their own homes. The wide variety of artworks, from depictions of neat potted plants to wild landscapes, emphasize resiliency and regrowth. By now, these ideas are familiar to us as we persevere through this pandemic. ‘Nature's Refrain’ reflects them back to us and offers comfort and calm through the beauty of the natural world. ‘‘
