Moon Setting into Fog Bank over Cape Cod Bay, Morning of the Total Lunar Eclipse. Barbara Bosworth (American, b. 1953).
Barbara Bosworth: Sun Light Moon Shadow
The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH
February 25–June 30, 2024
When photographer and 2022 resident Barbara Bosworth was a child growing up in Novelty, Ohio, she would go on nighttime walks with her father, and they would gaze up at the sky. This practice, which became a lifelong passion, inspired the photographs in this exhibition. Timed to coincide with the total solar eclipse visible in Cleveland on April 8, it explores Bosworth’s photographs of light—from eclipses, sunrises, and sunsets to the luminescent glow of fireflies and a flashlight.

Dallas Museum of Art

2021 artist-in-residence Nishiki Sugawara-Beda’s KuroKuroShiro - The Four Seasons was recently acquired by the Dallas Museum of Art and installed in their Japan Gallery. From the artist:
“I have a public responsibility as an artist. I am beyond thrilled that my work will exist long after my life; people in the future will interpret my work within their own time. Furthermore, this formal recognition by an American institution is a symbol for how my work, my culture, and my own identity have become accepted by and embedded into American culture.”
