URGENT NEWS: The highly anticipated exhibition, Living Collection: Works on Paper by Jason Eisner, is set to close on April 24 at St. Ambrose University‘s Morrissey Gallery in Davenport, IA. Art enthusiasts have just a few days left to experience Eisner’s captivating pieces that reflect a vibrant life steeped in art.
Eisner’s latest showcase includes works that he describes as “found out of the corner of the eye,” created during brief moments of inspiration while taking breaks outdoors. The exhibition’s urgency is underscored by its impending end, compelling visitors to seize the opportunity before it disappears.
The Morrissey Gallery is located at 2101 Gaines Street within the Galvin Fine Arts Center, and offers free admission. The gallery is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., providing ample opportunity for the public to engage with Eisner’s art before the exhibit concludes.
Born and raised in Illinois, Eisner has spent the past 30 years in New York City, immersing himself in the vibrant art scene. He holds a BA from Knox College and a Painting Certificate from the New York Studio School. Notably, Eisner also serves as a Master Pruner and Horticulturalist at the Green-Wood Cemetery and Arboretum in Brooklyn, where he tends to a living collection of over 8,000 trees, shrubs, and plants.
The exhibition asks profound questions about artistry: “When does one become an artist? When does an artist make art?” Eisner exemplifies this spirit, continuously finding ways to create amidst the demands of life, work, and family. His dedication to art outside conventional settings speaks to the essence of creativity.
As the clock ticks down to the exhibition’s closing, art lovers are urged to visit the Morrissey Gallery and witness Eisner’s remarkable works. For further information, call (563) 333-6444 or visit Facebook.com/CatichGallerySAU.
