Everlasting Calm: The Art of Elliott Daingerfield
to
LSU Museum of Art 100 Lafayette Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70802
A traveling retrospective on artist Elliott Daingerfield arrives at the LSU Museum of Art this month. Influenced by the French Barbizon School, Tonalists, and Symbolists, Daingerfield's work seeks to evoke the divine manifest in nature. Everlasting Calm, organized by the Morris Museum of Art, includes Daingerfield's oil paintings of Southern scenes and monumental Western landscapes as well as studies for these works. Along with over fifty works by Daingerfield, the exhibition will also feature creations by George Inness and Ralph Blakelock, contemporaries about whom Daingerfield published writings during the early twentieth century. Everlasting Calm opens with a public reception and lecture from 6 pm–8:30 pm on December 15. $10; $5 for LSU MOA members. On view until March 19. lsumoa.org.
