Winston Wächter Fine Art is excited to announce our sixth solo exhibition with Ethan Murrow, and the first to feature both drawings and paintings. The Riparian Lovers is a whimsical turn inward to the Vermont farmlands of Murrow’s youth, where characters are invigorated with a childlike splendor from exploring wetlands, romancing the pastoral with unbounded glee. He asks us to keep in mind the sublime highs and lows of nature when we see figures knee-deep in the elements— how realistic is our romance with the land? The series is imbued with a thoughtful, subtle indulgence that tells us that we should revel at the sight of bees, berries, and bogs, so long as we also embrace the hardships and patience required to maintain a lifelong relationship with the natural world.
