A View to Die For: Community Painting Day

Photo of Leola Bermanzohn by Ben Hider

Inspired by the grand tradition of painting in the outdoors (or as the French say “en plein air”), the Guild of Adventure Painters hosts an afternoon of community creativity amidst the beauty of Green-Wood. Whether you are an expert or novice, a painter, sketcher, or master of crayons, everyone is welcome to explore their artistic impulses and talents amid the rolling hills and historic monuments of the Cemetery. Artists from the Guild will be on hand to offer advice, guidance, and conversation. This is not a class, but it is an opportunity to share your talents with others free of judgment or critique. Join for the whole afternoon, or pop in for an hour. All ages are welcome.

Price: Free. Registration recommended.

In-Person Event(see details below)

The Guild of Adventure Painters is an exploratory painting residency founded in 2018 by Johnny DeFeo and Aaron Zulpo. Each year Adventure Painting takes a group of invited studio artists on a journey to a beautiful location. The focus is on outdoor exploration, building connections with fellow artists and art institutions along the way. Adventure Painting is set up as a plein air painting adventure; residents are encouraged to make landscape paintings but can interact with the landscape however they see fit throughout the course of the residency. Adventure Painting provides artists an opportunity to travel and explore the American landscape with the hope that it helps advance each artist’s studio practice.

Free. Reservation is recommended so that we may gauge attendance. Please consider a donation to Green-Wood when reserving your ticket. Your donation will help ensure that we can continue to provide engaging and thought-provoking programs at little or no cost to you.

Before Reserving Your Spot, Please Note:

In September, a map will be provided of possible locations to join the group! Stay tuned! Attendees must bring their own art supplies and ways to get comfortable (chair, blanket, easel, etc).A limited number of art supplies will be offered on a first come, first served basis. Attendees are strongly encouraged to wear suitable footwear as access to the event involves walking up hills or stairs, as well as grassy and uneven terrain.

Athena LaTocha

On view: October 1st-January 22ndAll DayHistoric Chapel and Battle Hill

“Athena LaTocha has embraced geological materials from mesas, wetlands and bluffs in her large-scale works. Now, she’s exploring what’s underfoot in New York City.” – The New York Times

Acclaimed artist Athena LaTocha’s large-scale installation explores the history of Green-Wood’s landscape as one of continuous movement and alteration, and invites us to consider the ways we might mourn and memorialize these shifts and changes.

Athena LaTocha, The Remains of Winter (Battle Hill, East), 2022. Work in progress. Commissioned by The Green-Wood Cemetery. Photo courtesy of the artist.

On view in the Historic Chapel and outdoors on Battle Hill, LaTocha’s distinctive sculptures are made from trees that once grew at Green-Wood and have been cloaked in thin sheets of lead. The work embraces the distinctive character of Green-Wood’s landscape and the roles that both human and natural forces have played in its transformation.

Athena LaTocha creates massive works that explore the relationship between human-made and natural worlds. She was inspired by her upbringing in the wilderness of Alaska and the Earthwork artists of the 1960s and 70s. LaTocha has exhibited across the country, most recently at BRIC House; The Visual Arts Center of New Jersey; MoMA PS1; JDJ at The Ice House in Garrison, New York; and the IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico. LaTocha is the recipient of the Eiteljorg Fellowship, the NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowship in Painting, and grants from the Joan Mitchell Foundation and the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation.

The Remains of Winter is made possible by a grant from The National Endowment for the Arts.

Free and open to the public.
