The curator explains: “This exhibition features the work of Charles Hawthorne, Hans Hofmann and Paul Resika, artists who each used color to striking effect. Hawthrone is renowned as the great teacher of the early Provincetown Art Colony. He painted with both oil and watercolors, with his watercolors in particular demonstrating the movement of color and form. Hofmann is also known for his use of color in his crayon drawings and watercolor paintings. It's in those mediums where his use of color in space is at its most fluid. Resika, a student of Hofmann's, is a colorist painter who combines the techniques of both Hofmann and Hawthorne with his own eye for vibrant color and use of gouache alongside watercolor.’’
