CHATTANOOGA, TN.-The Hunter Museum of American Art presents Charles Burchfield: The Seasons, on view through June 1, 2008. Charles Burchfield (1893-1967) was an extraordinary landscape artists working in the first half of the 20th century. A new exhibition, Charles Burchfield: The Seasons, will be on view at the Hunter Museum from March 1 to June 1, 2008.

The Hunter is fortunate to own several important paintings by Burchfield and these works serve as the basis of the exhibition.

Burchfield created large watercolor paintings of the woods, fields and small towns near his Ohio home and filled them with imagery that seems to vibrate and hum with the intensity of his vision.

The show is organized by Chief Curator Ellen Simak who chose nearly 30 watercolors and drawings from the Hunter Museum collection, other museums and the Burchfield estate holdings of D.C. Moore Gallery that closely relate to themes and motifs in the Hunter works.
