The Lake Marion Artisans just visited the South Carolina Museum of Art in downtown Columbia, S.C. It was a great field trip, the latest in a series of ongoing visits to major art galleries and museums across the state. The focus of this particular field trip was to see the Van Gogh Exhibition.
Van Gogh and His Inspirations is an original exhibition
organized by the Columbia Museum of Art (CMA) that brought 12 paintings and drawings by Van Gogh,
including an outstanding painting of flower fields from the National
Gallery of Art. These were displayed alongside a variety of
handpicked paintings and drawings by other artists who influenced Van
Gogh’s aesthetic and creative thinking.
As interesting as the Van Gogh exhibit was, it was also exciting and educational to see the many other galleries and exhibits in the museum on impressionism, modern art, SC scenes En Plein Air, visions from India, and much more. The SC Museum of Art is definitely an institution the state can be immensely proud of supporting.
If you'd like to join us on our next field trip, consider visiting or supporting the only art gallery in Clarendon County - the Lake Marion Artisans in Summerton, S.C.
