Crown Point Press presents Autumn: The Rhythm of Everyday Life, a fall group exhibition showcasing works by artists Anne Appleby, Robert Bechtle, Per Kirkeby, Gay Outlaw, Markus Raetz, Wayne Thiebaud, Patricia Treib, Rupy C. Tut, Richard Tuttle, and Charline von Heyl. This exhibition looks at the nature of the autumn season as a time to fall back into the routine of daily life. The term for the season “fall” dates back to the 17th century, and was popularized from the phrase, “fall of the leaves.” This phrase evokes the image of a leaf drifting from a bough of a tree, in no hurry at all, taking its time to reach the ground. Behind this simple act lies a complex system at work, yet it appears effortless and is a part of the tree’s lifecycle. Returning to a routine may simplify life, and within that steadiness lies the space to explore and uncover beauty hidden in the everyday.
