The Leiber Collection will present “James Brooks and Charlotte Park – A Talk with Artist Scott Bluedorn” at The Leiber Collection Museum in Springs on Sunday, February 4, at 3 p.m. Guests are invited to discover the captivating world of James Brooks and Charlotte Park and gain insights into their unique artistic styles as Bluedorn discusses the incredible artistry of these renowned artists.

James Brooks and Charlotte Park were a dynamic duo of the early days of Abstract Expressionism, bringing their unique sensibilities to the burgeoning American movement. They made their home on the East End, attracted to the area for its relative isolation and access to nature. Theirs is a fascinating story that combines post-war art, brazen creativity, resilience in the face of adversity and a legacy that continues today with the establishment of the Brooks-Park Art and Nature Center (BPANC) in Springs. Join Scott Bluedorn, a member of the BPANC committee, in learning about this story and the continuing effort to bring a new art and nature center to fruition. Don’t miss an opportunity to delve into the artistic journey of James Brooks and Charlotte Park. This event promises to be an engaging and enlightening experience.
