Seeing IS Believing: Visio Divina at Prairiewoods
<p>Come together in a circle of trust to integrate imagination, learning and prayer through the practice of <em>Visio Divina,</em> or holy seeing, at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) on Tuesday mornings. A contemplative practice of praying the Scriptures while viewing visual art, Visio Divina involves listening to the word of God, viewing art, pondering God’s message, letting our hearts speak and resting in God. Various works of art are used for the sessions, including pieces from <em>The Saint John's Bible,</em> professional artists and local artists. The sessions, facilitated by Lois Ocenosak, stand alone, so we invite you to attend whenever available. The cost is $5 per session. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2017-09-26 11:30:00 -0500

Across the Atlantic: American Impressionism through the French Lens
<p>This extraordinary exhibition, drawn entirely from the rich collection of the Reading Public Museum, explores the path to Impressionism through the nineteenth century and the complex relationship between French Impressionism of the 1870s and 1880s and the American interpretation of the style in the decades that followed. More than seventy-five paintings and works on paper help tell the story of the new style of painting which developed at the end of the nineteenth century—one that emphasized light and atmospheric conditions, rapid or loose brushstrokes, and a focus on brightly colored scenes from everyday life.</p><p><br></p><p>Some of the artists featured in the exhibition include Edgar Degas and Mary Cassatt, who exhibited in the official Impressionist exhibitions in Paris in the 1870s and 1880s. Among the earliest American artists to embrace the style were John Singer Sargent, William Merritt Chase, John Henry Twachtman, Childe Hassam, and Frank W. Benson. A host of American artists who embraced the style by the turn of the century including Robert Lewis Reid, William Paxton, Chauncey Ryder, and Guy Wiggins, are highlighted in the exhibition.</p> 2020-04-02 20:00:00 -0500

Unwrapped: Gifts from the Peter Norton Family Christmas Project, 1988-2018
<p>Retired computer entrepreneur Peter Norton (Norton Antivirus Software) is a contemporary art collector as well as an active participant in various civic and philanthropic activities. In 1988, the Norton Family Christmas Project began commissioning artists to create original, multiple-edition works that were mailed as holiday greetings to friends, colleagues, and selected institutions. In 2017, the CRMA received the bulk of these wonderful holiday greetings from Director Emeritus Terry Pitts and his wife Kathy Hall.</p><p><br></p><p>The objects and artists’ books that comprise the Project collection are incredibly varied. A sense of whimsy runs through many of the pieces: salt and pepper shakers become snow globes, a music box exhorts us to be silent. Many works also have a sociopolitical focus, addressing issues as varied as slavery, AIDS, and gender identity. Taken together, the Norton Family Christmas Project objects and artists’ books provide a wonderful snapshot of the last thirty years of activity in the art world at large, presenting the work of both emerging and more established artists. The 2018 edition of the Norton Family Christmas Project was the last and ended the series.</p><p><br></p> 2020-04-02 20:00:00 -0500

Ignatius at 2020 Retreat at Prairiewoods
<p>Ignatius of Loyola was both a mystic with a powerful vision of the interconnectedness of humanity with all other creatures and also a practical man of his time and place. He was the inventor of the modern university and the visionary founder of the Jesuits. Because of his special interest in personal and social transformation, we at Prairiewoods are including him in our series of retreats featuring cosmic visionaries of the past and what they have to teach us about our pilgrimage on planet Earth today. Join facilitator Father Dennis Hamm, SJ, at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) as we work with forms of meditation, contemplation and discernment inspired by Ignatius’ methods in the latter’s Spiritual Exercises. Dennis will give special attention to the spirituality of Pope Francis as articulated in his eco-encyclical, <em>Laudato Si’: On Care for our Common Home, </em>in response to the cry of Earth and the cry of the poor. The cost of this weekend retreat is $230 and includes sessions, lodging and all meals. The commuter fee is $180 and includes sessions, Saturday lunch and dinner, and Sunday lunch. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p>

Across the Atlantic: American Impressionism through the French Lens
<p>This extraordinary exhibition, drawn entirely from the rich collection of the Reading Public Museum, explores the path to Impressionism through the nineteenth century and the complex relationship between French Impressionism of the 1870s and 1880s and the American interpretation of the style in the decades that followed. More than seventy-five paintings and works on paper help tell the story of the new style of painting which developed at the end of the nineteenth century—one that emphasized light and atmospheric conditions, rapid or loose brushstrokes, and a focus on brightly colored scenes from everyday life.</p><p><br></p><p>Some of the artists featured in the exhibition include Edgar Degas and Mary Cassatt, who exhibited in the official Impressionist exhibitions in Paris in the 1870s and 1880s. Among the earliest American artists to embrace the style were John Singer Sargent, William Merritt Chase, John Henry Twachtman, Childe Hassam, and Frank W. Benson. A host of American artists who embraced the style by the turn of the century including Robert Lewis Reid, William Paxton, Chauncey Ryder, and Guy Wiggins, are highlighted in the exhibition.</p><p><br></p> 2020-04-03 16:00:00 -0500
