Matter and Force
Matter and Force presents select works from the Kemper Museum Permanent Collection that allow viewers to ponder the physical elements—dirt, clay, wood, paint—that artists use to harmonize material substance with creative vision. Throughout the exhibition viewers are encouraged to consider the artist’s choice of materials and the methods used to combine and arrange these elements into a unique work of art that visually references the natural world.
