Despite the steamy weather, the Museum enjoyed a dynamic summer with strong attendance for the Treasure Coast Creates: A Tribute to Local Artists exhibition, featuring the exceptional talent of artists in our tri-county area. Our summer art camp was also vital, with over 600 campers attending, the most in many years.
We’re looking forward to a busy season ahead with the iconic works of M.C. Escher: Infinite Variations in a significant retrospective this fall. Escher combined a fascination of mathematics with dream-like imagery to create some of the most recognizable images of the 20th century. We are pleased to present this nationally traveling exhibition in Vero Beach. We will explore his art with a broad array of programs, including a special performance, And So It Goes, by our friends at Ballet Vero Beach on November 11.
In December, we will present our third annual Art After Dark outdoor digital art exhibition, featuring a new selection of video artists from around the world. This free event has been a hit since its inception and will feature more artists this year, so mark your calendars for December 15 and 16.
Our winter exhibition will be a stunning display of 19th century French paintings inspired by Napoleon’s exploration of ancient Egypt. This began a century-long fascination with Egyptology culminating with Howard Carter’s discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922.
Carter’s patron was the Fifth Earl of Carnarvon, and his decedent, Lady Fiona Carnarvon, will be one of the featured speakers in our 2024 International Lecture Series, which will also include Sara Parcak, Space Archeologist; Bernard Fishman, Director of the Maine State Museum; and Robert Wittman, former Senior Investigator and Founder of the FBI’s National Art Crime Team. This will be a fascinating International Lecture Series, a cornerstone program for the great season ahead.
We look forward to seeing you in the Museum this fall.
