This important exhibition offers a retrospective view of the 70-year career of Eugene Ludins, a Woodstock painter of realistic and allegorical landscapes and insightful portraits. Beginning with his residency at the Maverick colony in Woodstock in 1929 and until his death 1996, Ludins was a leading member of the Hudson Valley arts community, Ulster County Director of the Federal Arts Program of the WPA from 1937-39, and an avid baseball player. Sixty paintings, thirty drawings, sketchbooks, photographs and memorabilia, and two sculptures by Ludins’ wife, sculptor Hannah Small, illuminate the life of an artist who was both unique and emblematic of his time.

This exhibition features 65 drawings by Anthony Panzera based on Leonardo da Vinci's notes and drawings on the human form retrieved from some 7,000 pages of Leonardo's notebooks. Panzera's drawings and additional information sheets illustrate entries from Leonardo's notes on the relative proportions of the head, torso, leg, foot, arm, hand, and whole body, and exemplify the humanistic orientation and intellectual concerns of Leonardo da Vinci.
