So you think I'm to old to.... : A LOOK AT HOW OLDER ARTISTS EXCEL AS THE YEARS PROGRESS

Feb 1 - May 3, 2025

Hudson Valley MOCA

Peekskill, NY

There is a story, not sufficiently touted, of artists finding their best creative energy as they enter their senior years. Arguably, Louise Bourgeois created her best works, her spiders and cells, well into her 80’s, after leaving behind the totemic works that so mimicked her male counterparts.   Is it the freedom offered by a lifetime of observation and integration of the interior psyche with outer data?  Is it the freedom that age offers to be introspective, to not bow to external critique and judgement.
