“Veil” (offset lithograph and screenprint on paper), by Mikel Elam, in the group show “Sacred Space,’’ at the Fairfield (Conn.) University Art Museum, Sept. 21-Dec. 21.
The museum says:
“‘Sacred Space’ encourages a deep exploration of spiritual connection, inviting viewers to reflect on the ancestral wisdom and memory passed down through generations. The exhibition serves as a portal into the interconnected realms of spirituality, time, space, memory, and culture. The artists pay homage to their forebears, drawing upon cultural traditions, rituals, and sacred practices to honor and preserve, as well as question, the invaluable heritage that shapes our identities.’’
“Christina’s World’’, by Andrew Wyeth (1917-2009), set on a farm in the Maine Coast town of Cushing. It’s in the Museum of Modern Art, New York, a few miles from New England.
The house depicted in the painting is known as the Olson House. It’s open to the public and is operated by the Farnsworth Art Museum, in Rockland, Maine.
