Often regarded as a colorist, this exhibition repositions Ann Craven within a deeper language that moves beyond her traditional motifs–moons, flowers, and birds–to explore the mechanics of painting itself. It will highlight an often overlooked conceptual framework, where seriality, repetition, and shifts in scale function as both meditative and formal devices in her paintings. Her exhibition, Ann Craven: Painted Time (2020-2024), is on view at the Farnsworth Art Museum in Rockland, Maine from May 3, 2025—January 4, 2026.
