A Roger L. Crossgrove Retrospective: 1958-2008 On exhibition through August 31
Roger Crossgrove, beloved Professor of Art Emeritus at the University of Connecticut, has chosen Muse Le Belle Artiste as the gallery to show and make available a collection of his favorite artworks from 1958-2008, including pastels over watercolor monotypes; black-and-white gelatin silver prints; color c-prints; and watercolor monotypes. A Roger L. Crossgrove Retrospective: 1958-2008 is on exhibition through August 31 at the holistic fine arts center located in the former Methodist Church, 1141 Main Street in Old Coventry Village, CT. Crossgrove was raised in Nebraska by a mother who received art lessons through the mail. After earning his BFA from the University of Nebraska and his MFA from the University of Illinois, he taught at Pratt Institute in the 1950s and early 60s and came to the University of Connecticut in 1968. Hired as the head of the art department in the School of Fine Arts, he mentored student artists until his retirement in 1988. Crossgrove has exhibited his works extensively in national solo and group shows including The Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition. He has established a reputation as a master of the watercolor monotype and since l976 he's been exploring various aspects of photography.
