Walk through the Exalted Nature exhibition with Associate
Curator Amanda C. Burdan as she discusses Charles Burchfield’s
painted representations of non-visual aspects of the
landscape. Just as Burchfield “saw” the sounds of nature,
we can “listen” to his watercolors. Free for members and
included with Museum admission.
Sundays, October 19 and November 9 at 2 p.m.
Charles Burchfield immersed himself in classical music,
often listening in his studio and responding to personally
resonant pieces in his paintings. Expressing sound visually
was important to the artist; in 1915 he wrote, “It seems at
times I should be a composer of sounds, not only of rhythms
and colors. Walking under the trees, I felt as if the color made
sound.” Steinway Artist Catherine Marie Charlton will play
a selection of works by composers specifically mentioned
by Burchfield in his journals: Beethoven, Haydn, Brahms
and Sibelius. Free for members and included in Museum
admission.
There will be a Veterans’ Day memorial ceremony Sunday, Nov. 9 at the Concord Township American Hero Memorial on Smithbridge Road across from the Rachel Kohl Memorial. Beginning at 3 p.m. There will be a brief presentation with a changing of the flags. There will also be Paul Scarborough prints for sale.
