Including thirteen works from all phases in the artist’s career, this exhibition reveals John Henry Twachtman’s quick eye for the artistic possibilities in everyday life.  Working in a direct and succinct manner, he brought a modern aesthetic to his art that was ahead of his time.  He had an intuitive understanding of abstraction that other American artists did not acquire until after the Armory Show of 1913.
