Past Exhbitions -- April 2006
Renée Stout: Church of the Crossroads
The Concept of the Crossroads is fundamental to the work in our latest exhibition, Church of the Crossroads. Renée Stout utilizes her skills as a photo-realist painter to imbue her mixed-media works and installations with socio-historical critiques, Vodou imagery, and elements of Yoruba, Creole and African-American culture. In a uniquely informed voice, Stout masterfully blends Old World traditions with contemporary and personal issues to create profound statements on the often tense intersection between society, theology, and political forces.

The John and Maxine Belger Family Foundation
The work presented in this exhibition is on loan to us from The John and Maxine Belger Family Foundation. The foundation began collecting contemporary American art in the early 1970s, spurred by the enthusiasm of the late John Belger and his son, Dick. Today the foundation focuses primarily on collecting in-depth the work of contemporary artists, including William Christenberry, Jasper Johns, Robert Stackhouse, Renée Stout, Terry Allen, William Wiley, and Terry Winters. All phases of each artist's career are represented in the collection. This deliberately narrow focus is rewarding in that it gives an unparalleled opportunity to understand an artist’s development over time, as well as giving insight into the nature of creativity.
