The Hiro Fine Art gallery invites you to an upcoming exhibit on Minnesota Artist Cameron Booth. The retrospective will highlight Booth’s key themes and reveal his consciousness of anatomy, form, and color expression. The show will also coincide with the release of our Cameron Booth catalogue of works project.

Impacting viewers in the Midwest with blasts of bright color to realistic and abstract subjects, artist Cameron Booth enlivened the painted surface. In addition to being color savvy, Booth was an active and integral member of the early Minnesota arts community. Born in 1892, Booth settled in Moorhead, Minnesota as a child. He studied impressionism at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Cubism in Paris and Munich. He witnessed works by Picasso, Braque and Cezanne at the Armory show, which are expressed in his later abstract works. Booth held a teaching position at the Art Students League of New York City and the University of Minnesota.

Booth was captivated by a desire to capture local landscapes. His scenes of an earlier Minnesota offer locals the opportunity to pause and admire our growing environments, both rural and urban. Cameron Booth paintings on view at the Hiro Fine Art gallery explore the beauty of Native American reservation culture, and human connections to the natural environment and to the aesthetics of energetic abstract forms presented on large surfaces.

The catalogue will soon be available online.
