Weekend Film Screenings at The Asheville Art Museum

November 15 - 16 at 2 PM at The Asheville Art Museum, 2 S Pack Square in downtown Asheville NC - Visions of Mary Frank.   This new film is a window into artist Mary Frank's vision. Frank's creations never fit into neat categories of Abstract Expressionist, Pop, Conceptual, new expressionism or outsider art, and yet her work is in nearly every major American museum. 

Her explorations take form in drawings, triptychs, paintings, prints, photographs and sculpture. In clay, magnificent female figures emerge from the earth, evoking mythic gods and human frailties. Rated: NR. 55 minutes.

This event is Free with membership or Museum admission.
