This exhibition showcases many of the still life works in the CRMA collection in a broad array of media.</p><p><br></p><p>Image caption:</p><p>Norbert Marszalek, <em>Shell Teacup</em>, 2016, oil on canvas, 8 x 10 inches, gift of the artist.</p><p><span style="font-size: 12px;"><em>This exhibition and accompanying educational programming has been made possible by Rockwell Collins and by the CRST International Donor-Advised Fund of the Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation.
