In Dialogue with Jean-Paul Riopelle: Exhibition and Sale
Forthcoming exhibition
Overview
Natalie Vassil’s From a Simple Drop of Rain echoes the expressive freedom and natural lyricism found in Riopelle’s work, translating those impulses into a contemporary meditation on connection and renewal.
Reflecting on how something as small as a single drop can give rise to beauty, growth, and community, Vassil draws on her experiences in the big sky country of Alberta and the lush west coast of Central Africa to explore how nature mirrors the vibrant, interdependent structures of human life.
With its commanding scale and sweeping energy, the painting becomes more than a landscape: it is a meditation on our shared humanity and inseparable bond with the earth. Vassil invites us to pause, look closely, and rediscover the beauty that unites us.
OPENING RECEPTION
Saturday, October 18, 1 - 4 PM
Talk by Ryan Green on Jean-Paul Riopelle at 2 PM
Artist Natalie Vassil in attendance for opening reception
