Jill Krutick to Debut Solo Museum Exhibition: Coral Beliefs at Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park & Museum
Exhibition Opens February 23, 2023 and Continues until August 6, 2023 with an Opening Reception Planned on June 9th from 5 - 7 PM
Krutick has cultivated a unique artistic technique in which she combines abstract expressionism and color field painting with a narrative component. Her approach to painting is influenced by her eco-adventures and underwater experiences as a certified scuba diver. Krutick says, “Traveling through all the colors in a rainbow, 'Coral Beliefs' is not just a statement about the urgent need to preserve fragile coral reefs but it is also a philosophical expression of my art practice, which is defined by inclusivity, collaboration, and networking.”
The centerpiece of the main gallery at the museum show is a near 85-foot long, 25-panel monumental work called "Coral Beliefs," which captures both the exquisite beauty and the unprecedented tribulations faced by coral reefs around the world today. Krutick will attend Pyramid Hill's annual celebration of Art & Earth Day on Saturday, April 22, 2023 to feature Coral Beliefs as part of a day full of environmentally focused events, participatory art activities, and other special exhibitions.
Executive Director, Bryan W. Knicely, adds, “We at Pyramid Hill are thrilled to host Jill Krutick’s Coral Beliefs at our Museum. Krutick has captured her extraordinary experiences in forms that fully immerse visitors into the underwater world of coral reefs. Full of life and meaning, Coral Beliefs is a remarkable collection with unparalleled colors, textures, and value. We are certain our visitors will enjoy the experience of this exhibition and the opportunities for discussion that will follow." Krutick will also exhibit 36 watercolor paintings titled “Contours of the Earth,” which examine the post-apocalyptic imagined shapes of the world after the effects of climate change. Another notable painting is “The Coral Reef,” a 6 x 12 foot six-panel work, which explodes with color and sculptural elements.
Interviews with Jill Krutick, and requests to view images of the paintings that will be featured in the solo exhibition, can be arranged through the museum’s Marketing Manager, Delaney French.
