TUCSON, AZ--(Marketwired - January 18, 2016) - The night is a loaded image associated with mystery, drama, the esoteric, and otherness. Into the Night: Modern and Contemporary Art and the Nocturne Tradition is comprised of paintings, photographs, and works on paper, by more than 65 national and regional artists that investigate psychological concepts of darkness, the dreamscape and its connection to the night, and the inter-connectedness of the environment with cultural and artistic concerns through the enigmatic notion of the night. Featuring works by Georges Braque, Marsden Hartley, Rockwell Kent, Gregory Crewdson, Maki Kaoru, Mark Klett, Richard Misrach, Olaf Wieghorst, and many others, this major exhibition opens to the public Saturday, February 27, 2016, at the Tucson Museum of Art (TMA) in historic downtown Tucson. Drawn from the Museum's collection and accompanied by a selection of important loans, this exhibition was conceived, curated, and organized by TMA Chief Curator and Curator of Contemporary and Modern Art, Dr. Julie Sasse.
