Permanent Collection Gallery “From the HAC Collection-Morris Graves,” In a baby book, Graves’ mother recorded his first word as “see.” In looking at a life of work, it seems that this is what he has asked himself and us as viewers to do all along- to see, to look beyond the surface of the objects and catch sight of their inner nature. This exhibition invites the viewer to explore the work of Morris Graves from the HAC Permanent Collection and to see glimpses into a world of natural harmony and ethereal beauty. The HAC Permanent Collection Gallery will rotate works from the collection that are only exhibited occasionally.
