February 26, 2016 - July 30, 2016 - The exhibition explores American art in the narrative tradition, from the 1820s through today. From the classically-influenced historical and genre paintings of 19th century artists to powerful contemporary narrative work, artists have long created richly evocative stories. In this exhibition’s 18 paintings, prints, and photographs, chosen primarily from the Long Island Museum’s permanent collection, artists have explored every aspect of the human condition, just as writers of literary and stage productions. The exhibition explores narrative art through four separate themes – work, satire, drama, and hope – and includes a range of work from artists of every era.
