This exhibition highlights an artist who has spent decades transforming the abstract elements of nature into vibrant, expressive works. Since the 1970s, Rocco Pisto has embraced the spontaneous, unpredictable beauty of water-based media, allowing color, movement, and intuition to shape each piece. Each work is built through layered washes that create depth and harmony. The brush moves with both intention and openness, responding to the magic of the unexpected. Guided by a creative instinct, Pisto’s paintings invite viewers into a world where structure and improvisation meet, offering a visual symphony that feels both alive and effortlessly free.

Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was one of the most influential works of the American Revolution. The first edition was published on January 10, 1776, with an initial print run of just 1,000 copies; but within weeks demand soared. The students of Andy Murphy’s POLISCI 495 course co-curated the exhibition “Revolutionary Paine” to document the whirlwind caused by its publication. On view at the Clements January 16-May 8, weekdays from 12-4 pm.
