Spotlight Exhibition

Rockwell Refracted: Colorful Selections from the Permanent Collection

On view: May 23, 2025 - September 14, 2025

Color makes the world come to life! The way we perceive color can vary across cultures and even from person to person. Artists throughout time have used color to express meaning, elicit emotions, and bring joy to viewers. This summer, The Rockwell Museum highlights the most colorful works in their collection to explore how artists manipulate light, shades, and tints that leap off the canvas to communicate beyond vision to excite our imaginations.
