Alicia Mordenti & Erika Larskaya’s latest works will be on display from August 27th through October 1st, 2022.

Byrde + the b is pleased to announce the exhibit of recent landscape paintings of Alicia Mordenti and abstract paintings by Erika Larskaya.

Alicia is a Litchfield County resident who has absorbed the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape and distilled her reflections on oils on canvas. Her views are intimate and on a human scale. Alicia has honed her artistic style across years of experimentation with color, pigment, materials and structure. She is an American naturalist.

Erika Larskaya uses acrylic paint to construct unplanned works which she surrenders to the act and flow of painting, allowing the process to dictate the direction of each work up to its completion. Erika is originally from St. Petersburg, Russia. She seeks to express things that are not seen, but rather felt.

Please join us on Saturday, August 27th from 5-6:30pm for an artist’s reception.

Although race and identity always have shaped U.S. politics, they reemerged five years ago in what was supposed to be Obama’s post-racial America with new intensity, a political pivot and the unapologetic driver of Donald Trump’s unexpected victory.

But the reenergized racial forces that propelled Trump to the White House did not spring out of a vacuum. The crowd-pleasing candidate merely marshaled spirits unleashed half a century ago in what was a culmination of the so-called “Southern strategy,” the Republicans’ to push race and identity to the political forefront. In its seventh show of the season, a panel of nationally known voices will discuss the role of race in American politics and how identity issues are shaping our daily lives.

Due to popular demand, Music on the Green is back this October!
