Drawn from the Alisa and Isaac M. Sutton Collection, one of the finest private collections of contemporary botanical art in America, the fifth-four artworks comprising the exhibition are expressions of the purely aesthetic forms found in nature and a reminder that we are stewards of our natural resources for future generations. Isaac Sutton’s love of nature and concern for the environment led him to this collecting direction. He appreciates an artist’s ability to capture not only the beauty of a plant specimen but also its distinct form and function with scientific accuracy while filtering it through his or her own sensibility. Forty artists from Australia, Belgium, Cuba, England, France, Germany, India, Japan, Russia, Scotland, South Africa, and the United States are featured.
