Jennifer Bartlett: In and Out of the Garden

ON VIEW THROUGH APRIL 3O ► Selections from Jennifer Bartlett's series "In the Garden," one of the artist's most ambitious works
"In and Out of the Garden" serves as a complement to the concurrent exhibition Bonnard’s Worlds (March 2-June 2, 2024). Both Bartlett and Bonnard were avid gardeners, and their work reflects the profound connection they felt between art and nature.

Trained at the Yale School of Art, Bartlett developed a style that combines mathematical systems with painterly expression, drawing from Post-Impressionism, Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, and Conceptualism. She depicted several views of the same scene using an astounding range of techniques, styles, and media, including pencil, charcoal, ink, Conté crayon, watercolor, pastel, and gouache. Working from photographs and memory, she expanded the series to include paintings on steel plates, canvas, and even glass.
