Original Artist Highlight
Mark Eberhard
Gallery artist, Mark Eberhard and his painting On the Edge, are the focus of In the Spotlight: Mark Eberhard's On the Edge, a six-month exhibit of avian artwork opening October 22, 2011 at the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson, Wyoming.
In the Spotlight: Mark Eberhard’s On the Edge is the third in a series of annual exhibits to feature a recent acquisition juxtaposed with other similar-themed art curated from the National Museum of Wildlife Art’s permanent collection. The Museum purchased Eberhard’s On the Edge and will introduce the painting alongside works by notable historic artists John James Audubon, Andy Warhol, Paul Jouve, and Jessie Arms Botke; as well as paintings by contemporary artists, Ray Harris-Ching and Tom Palmore. By offering a diverse selection of art by an artist’s predecessors and contemporaries, the Museum presents a contextual platform for the overall exhibit. Eberhard’s Snowy Owl and Ring Bill Gull which are also in the Museum’s permanent collection will be part of the display, as well.
