Terrell James: Field Study
May 8 – October 2, 2011
Organized by the Cameron Art Museum Terrell James: Field Study compliments Clyde Connell: Swamp Songs by showing two women artists of different generations, one influenced by the other, exploring themselves and their lives through abstract expressionism – painting, sculpture, teaching and writing.
The title references a body of work called Field Studies, which have evolved from color studies done on the palette in preparation for formal paintings – the palettes became “automatic” paintings/drawings in themselves. This exhibition will feature work influenced by the Cape Fear region and will include paintings, sketchbooks, writing and historic artifacts. James’ work is in the permanent collection of the Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, TX, Menil Collection, Houston, TX, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, TX, Portland Art Museum, OR, Tacoma Art Museum, Tacoma, WA and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.
