SPRING/ SUMMER

SHOWCASE OPENING

MPAC is a collaboration of Outdoor Painters of Minnesota, Red Wing Arts, and Art of the Lakes Association to mount an annual exhibit in different Minnesota venues to showcase paintings created in the organizations' annual plein air events in Grand Marais, Red Wing, and Battle Lake. MPAC seeks to raise awareness of our plein air events and appreciation of our State's dedicated plein air painters through their depiction of landscapes in the North Shore, Driftless Area, and Prairie Lakes regions.

Groveland Gallery is pleased to present, Time Taken, an exhibition of 20-30 new and recent plein-air and studio paintings by Saint Paul artist Joshua Cunningham.

“Imagine the anticipation, excitement, and anxiousness of not knowing what you were about to see, but knowing the world was going to offer you something you’d either spend the morning painting or the rest of the day kicking yourself for not taking the time to answer the invitation of light, shadow, and air. On my way to these places, I left trails in the snow, slid down riverbanks, and sunk into a drift of polished pebbles along Lake Superior. I took my time picking my path, crossing a stream, and following hunches down dusty roads, trusting I would end up where I was meant to be so that I could share it with you.”

2023 Exhibition

September 29 to October 31

The Minnesota Marine Art Museum is proud to be a presenting partner of the River Arts Alliance’s inaugural event, Flora & Fauna - The Plein Air Experience, on September 28 - October 1, 2023, in Winona, MN. Featuring workshops led by renowned artists Fred Somers, Kami Mendlik, and David R. Smith, a weekend-long invitational plein-air exhibition, presentations, and a public opening reception. All centered around the celebration of the Upper Mississippi’s flora and fauna and presented en plein air.

We welcome plein air artists from near and far to take part in Flora & Fauna: The Plein Air Experience, 2023 by spending time painting outdoors in and around the Winona community during these four days. Paint along during one of the demonstrations above, or at a time and place of your choosing.

Each day is unique and subject to the time, place, and weather. In this workshop, Joshua Cunningham will share how some foundational principles of the prismatic palette can deepen our understanding of how light and air reveal the world, helping us see and share in the gift of each day. Adults of all skill levels are welcome. It is my hope for you to have at least started several field studies during your time with me. While you are painting, I will go around offering assistance with the goal of helping and encouraging each of you to navigate the specific scene you chose to paint.
