• Fogg Presents Avery's Graphic oeuvre: This article discusses an exhibition of Milton Avery's graphic work at the Fogg Art Museum from April 6 through April 30. The exhibition showcases 60 prints executed between 1933 and 1955, demonstrating Avery's ability to express ideas and feelings with almost stark, yet warning simplicity. His range of subjects includes portraits, nudes, scenes swathed in calming domesticity, and landscapes. The exhibition catalogue calls attention to Avery's fascination with the energy flowing through nature and living beings, all within the larger, energized universe. Critic Frank Catlin writes, "Berson's elan vital, translated by Shaw as the life force, is what Avery celebrated in his work...He saw it in the eternal rhythms of the waters, in the glistening of the myriad sands, above all in the pure energy of the sun giving life to all beneath." Avery celebrated in his work...He saw it in the eternal rhythms of the waters, in the glistening of the myriad sands, above all in the pure energy of the sun giving life to all beneath. While he lived, Milton Avery (1893 - 1957) was never famous in the traditional sense, but was respected as a perceptive and capable artist. Only since his death has his reputation blossomed. Abstract painters, Mark Rothko and Adolph Gottlieb, and others in our generation who have celebrated the world around them," Rothko says in a memorial tribute, "but none with that inevitability where the poetry penetrated every pore of the canvas to the very last touch of the brush." For Avery was a great poet-inventor who had invented vocabularies never seen or heard before. From these we have learned much and will learn more for a long time to come."
