The OAS AMA | Art Museum of the Americas and the Permanent Mission of the United States to the OAS present

DIALOG: Landscape and Abstraction | Freya Grand and AMA’s Permanent Collection.

Curated by Adriana Ospina and guest curator Hilary Pierce Hatfield

This exhibition pairs important 20th century abstract works by artists in the OAS AMA’s permanent collection with works of contemporary landscape painter Freya Grand. The pairings of Grand and artists living and working in the Americas (1960 – 1973) convey a common dialog through their shared forms, textures, symbols, color, and composition. Here, Grand’s immersive landscapes derived from her experiences in remote regions of Ecuador, Peru, Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica and the Galapagos Islands intermingle with those of such stalwarts of the OAS AMA’s art collection as Maria Luisa Pacheco (Bolivia); Danilo di Prete, Tomie Ohtake, and Manabu Mabe (Brazil); Angel Hurtado (Venezuela); and Anibal Villacis (Ecuador).
