Bernard Langlais: Abstractions and Reliefs
Bernard Langlais, 1921 - 1977, Pigeon Holing, 1962, Wood Relief, 73 1/2 x 49 1/2".



WATERVILLE, ME.- The Colby College Museum of Art presents Bernard Langlais: Abstractions and Reliefs, on view through July 1. While working in New York in the late 1950s and early 1960s, Maine-born artist Bernard Langlais (1921-1977) began to explore the medium of wood relief. Using found wooden objects and scraps, Langlais developed a unique style of "painting with wood," creating complex works that are as viscerally stirring as they are familiar and mundane. This exhibition presents 24 of these evocative, early wood reliefs.
