My next project at the museum is a solo show of Scherer & Ouporov, a Russian-American collaborating couple who live in Florida. Opening August 28, As Above, So Below includes egg tempera paintings, silverpoint drawings, etchings, photographs and video and will be accompanied by a fully illustrated hard-cover catalogue. See examples of their art at their website and coming soon to the Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art website.
