About the exhibition:
Developed around two iconic Homer paintings, Worcester Art Museum's "The Gale"(1883-93) and the Milwaukee Art Museum's "Hark! The Lark" (1882), the exhibition "Coming Away: Winslow Homer and England" explores the artist's time in Cullercoats, England in 1881 and 1882.
Jointly coordinated by Worcester and Milwaukee, the exhibition features the most comprehensive group of oils made during, or resulting from, Homer's time abroad. Shown alongside will be comparative works by English artists that challenge our understanding of Homer's art being purely American in subject and style.
Following its run in Worcester, the show will be on view at the Milwaukee Art Museum March 2-May 10, 2018.
