Jundt Art Museum: New to You: Permanent Collection Objects on Display for the First Time

The Young Maiden and Death, 1854, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot

I was able to catch this show before it closed. This was an exhibit featuring mostly small-scale prints from etchings/engravings, notably including a Camille Corot and a Salvador Dali. My favorite piece was a Corot print, using a process called cliche verre, which is rare to see. Cliche Verre is a glass plate printing process which involves drawing an image on light sensitive paper. I had not heard of or seen this method before I saw this show. It was quite an unexpected treasure! There were also a small number of photographs, including a beautiful black and white image of an ocean/rocky shore, which reminded me of Ansel Adams, along with a few paintings/drawings included in the exhibit. I would recommend this show, especially If you like prints and remember to look closely at the detail of those etchings/engravings. I am excited to see what future exhibits the Jundt has to offer! Note: Images featured in this blog may or may not have been in the show. Also, please check out all of the sections of my website for updated artwork.
