URGENT UPDATE: Jason Eisner’s compelling exhibition, Living Collection: Works on Paper, is set to close on April 24, 2024 at St. Ambrose University’s Morrissey Gallery in Davenport, IA. Art enthusiasts have just days left to experience this unique showcase of Eisner’s latest works, reflecting a vibrant life filled with art and inspiration.
Eisner, a seasoned artist born in Illinois and now based in New York City, captures moments from everyday life in his pieces. He describes these creations as “found out of the corner of the eye and drawn while on break, sitting in the grass.” This exhibition illustrates his artistic journey, where creativity intertwines with his role as a horticulturalist at the historic Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn.
Gallery hours are Mondays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and admission is free, making this a must-visit for anyone in the area. The gallery is located within the Galvin Fine Arts Center. With only a few days remaining, now is the time to immerse yourself in Eisner’s artistic narrative.
As Eisner balances his work in horticulture with his passion for art, he embodies the essence of an artist, continually finding inspiration in the world around him. His life and career serve as a testament to the question posed in promotional materials: “When does one become an artist? When does an artist make art?” The answer becomes clear as visitors explore his work, which reflects the beauty of spontaneous creation.
