An annual installation of works from the Bellwether Foundation collection, the exhibit will feature oil and watercolor paintings and for the first time, drawings from Smith’s sketchbooks. Born in St. Louis in 1901, Wallace Herndon Smith was a traditional painter who absorbed the visual language of artists like Henri Matisse and Edward Hopper. His works include landscapes, still-lifes, portraits and domestic scenes.
