Island Museum of Art Presents “Helen Loggie A Retrospective: 1917 – 1956

January 29, 2010toMarch 7, 2010

This Retrospective from the Lambiel Museum Collection, Orcas Island, includes drawings, paintings, and etchings that span decades, 1917-1956. The spirit of Helen Loggie (1895-1976) lives in her mastery of the full range of values in drawing, and the dramatic energy communicated through etchings of shipping activities on Bellingham Bay, European paintings and etchings of Cathedrals and vignettes of ordinary working people in New York.  Upon returning to Bellingham and Orcas Island from Europe and New York, she dedicated herself to the depiction of her passion: the trees, mountains, islands, flowers, and sea tides around her.  One sees the full development and power of her art in this work.
