Roy De Forest, View of Lake Louise 1979. Acrylic on canvas, 75 x 87 inches.
Roy De Forest is included in A Time Before We Were Born: Visions of Arcadia In Contemporary Painting at Sylvia Wald & Po Kim Gallery. Taking its title from the 1983 Talking Heads song “This Must Be the Place (Naïve Melody),” this group exhibition surveys how painters have drawn inspiration from existing and invented mythologies to create interpretations of natural and fantastical paradises, illustrating a necessity for visual hope and harmony. The exhibition will be on view through September 29, 2018.
