Aldwyth "Casablanca (Classic Big)"

Ackland Art Museum

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Ackland Art Museum features a retrospective of the dazzling reclusive 73-year old collage artist Aldwyth. The artist lives near a South Carolina salt marsh where she assembles her large wall collages and intricate Joseph Cornell-esque cigar box vignettes.

Duke University’s Nasher Museum of Art mounts “Picasso: The Allure of Language” which explores the artist’s relationships and power struggles with writers, including Gertrude Stein, Max Jacob and others. The show includes loans from Yale University’s Art Gallery and the Dallas, Texas Nasher Collection.
