Nature's Rallying Cry: Works by Mira Lehr at C. Parker Gallery in Greenwich

 

Nature’s Rallying Cry: Works by Mira Lehr premiering at C. Parker Gallery in Greenwich from February 23 ‒ April 15th

VIP Preview Opening Reception: Thursday, Feb 23rd 6:30 - 8:30pm 

Opening Feb 23rd, C. Parker Gallery welcomes a very special exhibition for nationally acclaimed eco-feminist artist Mira Lehr, “Nature’s Rallying Cry”. 

Commonly and affectionately referred to as the “Godmother of Miami’s art scene”, Mira created outstanding and unique works throughout her life. Her exquisite creations have raised awareness and championed the environment. Marrying the strength of gunpowder and the delicate nature of Japanese rice paper, Mira created captivating works of art that delighted the collector’s senses and brought attention and urgency to our delicate ecosystem. A pioneer in the arts, a steward for the environment, a champion of women and talented creative, Mira’s vision of a better world shines though in this solo exhibition. 

This world premiere celebrates and gives tribute to both Mira and her final artworks. Mira personally collaborated last December with gallerist Tiffany Benincasa, member of the Association of Women Art Dealers, selecting the works that would bring the sensational art and energy of Miami’s Art Basel art week to Greenwich. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York recently acquired three of Lehr’s works for its permanent museum collection, and the artist has been profiled in major national media including The New York Times and PBS Television.
