Reading The Signs: The Art of H.A. Sigg
Amy H. Winter, Ph.D., Director and Curator of the Godwin-Ternbach Museum, Queens College, CUNY, NY
H. A. Sigg’s landscapes are composed of abstractions that reflect, rather than reproduce, nature itself. Calligraphic and geometric forms stand in for rivers and fields; drifting barges of light and color suggest clouds and mists observed in the morning or evening skies. This talk will explore the language invented by the artist that captures the essence and spirit of the forms and phenomena of the
natural world.
