Reflective storefront windows, theater marquees and subway cars populate the artwork of American artist Richard Estes. Throughout his career, the Illinois native has been drawn to the iconography of large cities, depicting urban settings in photorealist paintings.

Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art Derin Tanyol of the Hyde Collection says Richard Estes: Urban Landscapes is a travelling exhibit organized by the Portland Museum of Art in Maine, with support provided by Art Bridges.

The Hyde Collection in Glens Falls is the first museum to display the travelling show. You have until September 15 to view it. Learn more about the show at hydecollection.org.
