Richard Diebenkorn's Ocean Park #89.5 and April Gornik's Late Palatine Light in the 2018 exhibition Approaching Landscape.
Richard Diebenkorn moved from Berkeley to Santa Monica, California, in 1967 and soon began his best-known body of work, the Ocean Park series. Titled after the neighborhood where he established his studio, the paintings and drawings in this series are not strict depictions of the Ocean Park landscape. Instead, they represent Diebenkorn’s exploration of the interplay of light, color, and architecture around him.
Today with #MuseumSunshine, arts organizations around the globe share works that express brighter days.
