Abstract Flash: Unseen Andrew Wyeth greets the viewer with a 1965 quotation by the artist: “My struggle is to preserve that abstract flash—like something you caught out of the corner of your eye.” Conceived and curated by Karen Baumgartner, the show follows Wyeth’s dedication to this “abstract flash” in sixty watercolors painted between 1939 and 1996. The show, drawn entirely from the trove of over seven thousand Wyeth paintings and drawings in the new Andrew and Betsy Wyeth Collection, is divided between the Brandywine Museum of Art in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and the Farnsworth Art Museum in Rockland, Maine.
