John Wilde (1919-2006), a celebrated Wisconsin artist had widespread influence with his peers of the Magic Realism movement. His deep love of drawing was the foundation of his painting which often depicted sequences of life and death in natural settings. He rendered his surreal subjects in a highly detailed, flawless manner and he was a master of the silverpoint technique. His imagery and style continue to intrigue and inspire many artists today. A selection of prints and paintings from 1946 through 2003 will be presented.
