Brandywine River Museum Presents
Andrew Wyeth: Master Drawings from the Artist's Collection
(January 2006, #007)

WHAT: The Brandywine River Museum presents the first exhibition in more than four decades devoted to Andrew Wyeth's drawings. Approximately 40 works on paper in the exhibition demonstrate Wyeth's extraordinary skill as a draftsman and the accuracy with which he sees light and dark, enabling him to model forms while suggesting the very substance and texture of what he sees. This exhibition, which will be accompanied by an extensive catalogue with important commentary by Professor Henry Adams, will appear simultaneously with Andrew Wyeth: Memory and Magic at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
