In celebration of our 25 season Barbara Prey Projects unveils a bold new collection of monumental oil paintings by acclaimed American artist Barbara Ernst Prey in her latest exhibition, Nature Remixed.  The New York Times writes, “Prey is going where icons like Rauschenberg and Warhol have gone before”.  A key figure in American painting, her work is included in major public collections including The National Gallery of Art, The White House, The Brooklyn Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, The Kennedy Space Center and United States Embassies worldwide.  MASS MoCA commissioned Prey to paint the world’s largest known watercolor. She was appointed by the President of the United States to the National Council on the Arts, the advisory board of the National Endowment for the Arts.  She was invited to paint the official White House Christmas Card and her NASA commissions were part of the Smithsonian Museum traveling exhibit NASA ART/50 Years.   
 
A series of newly released limited edition prints  highlight her distinct American vision. Print releases include  Wayfarers (collection Smithsonian American Art Museum), Fibonacci’s Workshop (collection The National Gallery of Art) and Patriot (currently on exhibit at the U.S. Mission to the United Nations) and a newly released print of her  8’ x 15’ MASS MoCA  commission for their new Building 6- considered the world's largest watercolor.

Come celebrate our 25 anniversary this season. 

 Her attention to details recalls Vermeer...it’s a painter’s job to notice, and to draw out the nuance and light in what the rest of us ignore. Prey has that eye and hand ... what she makes touches the divine and has staying power.                                —The Boston Globe
