November 18 - January 6, 2024
From Foltz Fine Art:
“Starting November 18, 2023, Foltz Fine Art proudly presents Billy Hassell: The Giving Ground, featuring new paintings and watercolors inspired by the Texas landscape–from south to west Texas, to the Gulf Coast and the north Texas rolling plains. Though the exhibition focuses on new paintings and watercolors, the title of the exhibition is taken from a print made by Hassell exactly 30 years ago. In 1993, Hassell set to work on a commission for the Texas Nature Conservancy. The resulting print, made with Flatbed Press titled “The Giving Ground” was the artist’s “first real introduction into the world of conservation and represents a significant turning point in my work.” In The Giving Ground, Hassell reflects on the bounty of wildlife and breadth of landscapes within the state of Texas, while simultaneously acknowledging the interdependence of humans and animals to the environment.”
