Maine Invites You - Maine Tourism Association

Though known for his large, whimsical wildlife sculptures, Bernard Langlais also made bold abstract wood reliefs that fused his Maine upbringing with influences from the New York avant-garde. This exhibition, co-curated by Erin Gilligan '09, focuses on a select group of Langlais' abstractions and includes an introduction to an outside context influencing him in their creation. Langlais exploited the possibilities of his medium through found objects ranging from toothpicks to driftwood, and in so doing established an intimate approach to the character of wood. Free Admission. June 12-Oct. 3.
