Dutot Plein Air Event Featured in Ridge View Echo

Contributing writer for Ridge View Echo, Chip O’Chang, recently featured our Annual Plein Air Exhibit and Silent Auction.

‘En Plein Air’ Painting Tradition Continues with Delaware Water Gap Artists

Wander through the town of Delaware Water Gap, PA this week, or through the nearly 70,000 acres of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, and you might stumble upon a sight out of a story book: a lone painter outside, capturing nature on her canvas in the open air.

The practice of starting and finishing paintings entirely outdoors, with no retreat to an indoor studio, is called painting en plein air– French for “in the open air.” A centuries-old practice, it became the signature method of French impressionists like Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

Now, the Antoine Dutot Museum in the town of Delaware Water Gap is celebrating the resurgence of this art form with its Eighth Annual Plein Air Exhibit and Silent Auction.

While other en plein air events require an application or even an exclusive invitation, any artist can participate in the Dutot Museum’s paint out. Artists have between now and July 25th to complete up to four paintings done entirely en plein air, depicting anything in town or in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.

Join Us!

You’re invited to join us for Annual Plein Air Exhibit and Silent Auction, Saturday, July 29 from 1:00-4:00pm. Artwork will also be available on Sunday, July 30.
