MAR 13 - JUN 6 | Theodore Wores, Under the Californian Sun
Floral covered fields catch our view outside the window on the train into Silicon Valley. Parks and tree-lined streets still burst into bloom with springtime blossoms, and one can still glimpse the coastal dunes of the Bay by merely turning one’s back on the urban sprawl just over our shoulders. In this way we can still experience the beauty of our past, an experience enhanced even more by the paintings of Theodore Wores.
This exhibition features 23 paintings by Theodore Wores, from the City of Santa Clara’s collection, which the Triton Museum of Art maintains and preserves. Please join us for this enchanting look back at the spectacular natural vistas of California’s past.
MAR 13 – JUN 6 | Chun-Hui Yu, Poetic Sentiment, Chan Spirit
Chun-Hui’s paintings have been exhibited extensively in China, Taiwan, and now the U.S. She currently teaches Chinese Brush Painting and Calligraphy at San Jose City College.
MAR 13 – MAY 2 | Pop, Funk, and Just Plain Fun!
Often associated with Pop Art, but not necessarily derived from it, is Funk Art, an American art movement that was a reaction against the non-objectivity of Abstract Expressionism. An anti-establishment movement, Funk Art brought figuration back as subject matter into painting, rather than limiting itself to the non-figurative, abstract forms that Abstract Expressionists such as Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko were depicting. The movement's name was derived from the jazz musical term “funky,” meaning passionate, sensuous, and quirky.
Both of these traditions continue, as seen in the works of this exhibition from the Triton Museum’s Permanent Collection, by the artists
Roy De Forest, Kelly Detweiler, Don Fritz, Margaret Keane, Clay Vorhes, and
William Maul.
