Reaching for the Sky: Trees in the Work of Jimmie Jones & Other Artists, Near & Far

For the newest installation in the Jimmie F. Jones Gallery, Jimmie’s paintings that feature prominent rim pinyons and ponderosa pines will be displayed in conversation with other tree-celebrating works from our permanent collection and several special loans to SUMA.

This show includes SUMA’s recent acquisition, Jack Rabbit Ridge by Billy Schenck, and two important pieces from our collection of Japanese woodblock prints. This exhibition also marks our next collaboration with Modern West Fine Art, as it will feature contemporary works by Day Christensen, Woody Shepherd, and Navajo artist Shonto Begay.
