Someday we’ll find it... An evening with Keith

As part of, Inside/Outside, an exhibition of recent acquisitions, Keith Mayerson will join us for a conversation about art, uplift, hope, and how his paintings reflect on the still-to-be-fulfilled promise of this country.

Whether the Muppets, Grand Canyon, or Stonewall Uprising of 1969, Mayerson takes iconic subjects and personalizes them through his choices of color, brush marks, highlights, and shadows. Because of Keith, we see these familiar subjects anew. The recently acquired painting, Someday we’ll find it, the Rainbow Connection, the lovers, the dreamers, and me (2023) is about promise and potential. The hero of the story, a frog, pedals away from the swamp on a journey to California as he forges a new life.

Keith Mayerson's paintings, drawings, and graphic novels have been shown in dozens of solo exhibitions at such locations as Karma Gallery, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Cleveland; and Marlborough Contemporary, New York. Mayerson’s work was included in the 2014 Whitney Biennial and the Whitney Museum’s inaugural downtown show, America is Hard to See (2015).

This event and reception are supported by Kandy Budgor; Luria/Budgor Family Foundation.
