Wilhelm Neusser, Artist-in-Residence in 2019, generously created this video of his Fruitlands Series, taking us behind the scenes to his studio in Somerville, MA. He made 21 paintings, a body of work in response to a display of over 50 Hudson River School paintings with a focus on five specific paintings from the museum’s collection. The result, Pastoral Present, was on view in our art gallery last year.
