You have dahlias already? Or is this from last year? Jealous.

Grapes near the Judah Alden House. Another view of the existing gardens that will be preserved during ongoing projects on the grounds. Looking forward to lots of new growth ahead!

Even with all the work being done here at the museum both inside and out, there are still plenty of beautiful untouched places to rest your eyes. ๐ป๐บ

It's Gemini season and we think this print from the ACM collection exudes the essence of those social butterflies born between May 21st and June 21st.๐ฏ๐ฎ

๐จMeet Aaron Norfolk, the latest artist featured in our ongoing series of interviews archived on the ACM's website(link in bio)!
The Boston-based artist uses rendered figures, rich colors, linear edges, and faceted surfaces to create volumetric, frame-filling characters that engage in a mythic story line.
Aaron Norfolk's solo exhibition, "Full Sonic," is scheduled for late summer, 2022. Our interview with @aaron_norfolk , and previous interviews form the series, can be found the ACM website (link in bio) under the section titled "ACM @ Home."

๐ง๏ธ๐๐ต Stuck inside with the rainy day blues?
This Expressionistic etching by Hans Meyboden (Germany, 1901-1965) reflects a familiar rainy-day mood. Given recent shared experiences of confinement and isolation, the print may even feel exceptionally relevant in a contemporary context. Meyboden's etching evokes these associations through both its subject and its formal elements of Expressionism.
The Expressionist movement began in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century and became a crucial element of Modernism. Expressionist artists used exaggerated and distorted forms to convey emotion, ideas and the inner experience, a departure from the traditional realistic approach.
The artist has placed us, the viewer, outside a window, looking into the private quarters of a home, revealing a woman playing the flute and a man gazing out of the window, back in our direction. Details like the music stand, patterned rug and picture on the wall offer additional clues about the couple but, ultimately, mood and atmosphere take precedence over realism in this image.
