The Lyman Allyn Art Museum is excited to open an art exhibition by Power Boothe, a Professor of Painting at the Hartford Art School, University of Hartford, where he served as Dean from 2001 to 2010. The show, Nothing, Then Everything, is on view from May 11 through Aug. 4, 2024.

The exhibition brings together more than a dozen of Boothe’s large-scale abstract paintings in dialogue with his smaller canvases and works on paper, which explore the artist’s work and process. The show also surveys the shifts and the threads that run through the artist’s works over five decades of painting, with energetic, colorful, and bold canvases, as well as more quietly compelling ones. One section focuses on the artist’s drawings, showing framed works on paper as well as sketchbooks full of vivid compositions that visitors can see firsthand.

Boothe has works in many public collections including the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum, the Whitney Museum, and 625 Williams Street • New London, CT 06320 860.443.2545 • www.lymanallyn.orgthe Museum of Modern Art in New York. The artist, who was born in California, lived and worked as an artist in New York City for many years before moving to Connecticut in 2001.

The Museum welcomes the public to attend the May 10 opening reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served; members are free, and non-members are $10. Please RSVP to 860.443.2545 ext. 2129 or email at info@lymanallyn.org. Related programming includes a conversation with Power Boothe and Dr. George Smith on Tuesday, June 18 at 5:30 p.m.; and a gallery talk with Power Boothe and curator Tanya Pohrt on Wednesday, July 10 at 5:30 p.m.
