Utah: North to South

Utah: North to South

Presented by Brigham City Museum of Art and History at Brigham City Museum of Art and History

The Brigham City Museums are honored to host Utah: North to South, a retrospective of artist G Russell Case, open Saturday, April 16 through Saturday, June 18.

"If ever there was a time for the quieting of one's mind, now, I feel it is an opportune time. My focus in this show is to help direct our attention to the meaningful patterns of creation. To point to the universal truths that are plain to see of this world and human life. Every moment we are surrounded by an infinite expression of something so immensely wondrous and beautiful, yet, we can easily pass by with our thoughts captive to the concerns of our day.” - G. Russell Case

Russell Case is one of today’s premier painters of the American West. He stands proudly in the linage of greats such as Maynard Dixon and Edgar Payne and has found his own, very recognizable voice. His quiet but confident paintings exude a matter-of-factness, a straightforward authenticity. He has a clear and focused vision of where he is going and he takes us along for the journey.

The exhibition will provide visitors and art enthusiasts a look into Case’s 30 year career, focusing on Northern Utah, one of his favorite places to paint.
