Memorial Tribute to Cynthia Coulter

On Sunday, July 28, from 2 to 4 p.m., there will be a memorial tribute to artist Cynthia J. Coulter, who died on April 20 at the age of 62.

Coulter's work with found objects--materials with "past lives"--has been widely acclaimed and exhibited throughout the United States. Influenced by American folk art objects, Coulter is perhaps best known for her work with Native American canoe skins, which she transformed into large murals collaged with provocative, visually narrative elements. Her Oklahoma roots and her experience living in Chinatown in New York City and in Hong Kong were also sources of inspiration.

Coulter lived for many years in Columbia County and was represented by BCB ART.
