$Amy Hill Back to Nature at FRONT ROOM GALLERY James Kalm is back on the Lower East Side, and is lucky enough to snag Amy Hill for a brunch-time stroll through of her latest exhibition “Back to Nature”. With this selection of work, Hill reexamines the utopian impulses and illusions that have played such a fundamental role in creating the American psyche. With a salute to the 1960s, the Vietnam War, its political and social turmoil, and drug use, this decade represents a major fracture in American’s assumed stability and foreshadows many of today’s disquieting events. Hill is recognized for her sharp focus renderings and old master like technique, however for this outing, the artist has employed the influences of American folk art, Grant Wood, and even the wide eyed kids of Margaret Keane. This program was recorded Sept. 9, 2018.$
