Impressions of a Friendship: Dwight Williams and Arthur B. Davies
The Cazenovia Public Library Art Gallery presents Impressions of a Friendship: Dwight Williams and Arthur B. Davies, an exhibition featuring more than twenty pastel paintings by Dwight Williams (1856-1932) a Cazenovia landscape painter, teacher, and friend to renowned American painter Arthur B. Davies (1862-1928).
As a departure from Williams’ traditional landscapes, these colorful pastels celebrate Williams’ connection to Arthur B. Davies, an important American artist and organizer of the groundbreaking 1913 Armory Show. The exhibition in the library art gallery will run through May 31, 2013.
“Many of these pastels have never been exhibited before,” explained Library Director Betsy Kennedy. “It is an honor to be able to offer paintings of such high caliber to the community. The library’s collection of works by Williams was donated by Richard and Prudence Hubbard in 1992. Richard’s father, Robert, was a friend and patron of the Williams.
Williams was a fledgling twenty-year-old art instructor and recent Cazenovia Seminary graduate in 1876 when he was hired by the Davies family of Utica, New York, to provide private drawing instruction for their fourteen-year-old son, Arthur. Williams, who would describe these first sessions as ‘seeing lessons’, noted the boy’s genius from the outset. Although the instructions would last just two years, the friendship and love for the beauty of Central New York would last throughout both their lives. Williams, as Davies first instructor, places Cazenovia in the footnotes of 20th century American art history.
Davies, who would go on to become one of the most respected artists of his day, visited Williams in Cazenovia on several occasions. Here Davies describes Cazenovia to his friend and art dealer, William Macbeth, of New York:
“Cazenovia is perfectly ideal, such people, gardens, old houses, grand hills and trees. I have never realized except in my pictures and dreams, and I can see how much I have owed to these very conditions, through my dear friend Dwight Williams.” -- Arthur B. Davies, 1905
Writer and museum director Duncan Phillips, of the Phillips Collection in Washington, DC, described the bond between Davies and Williams as “one of mutual admiration, affection and affinity.”
“It is these affinities for color and movement, mountains and stream, home and travel that this exhibition celebrates,” writes exhibition coordinator Patti Christakos in the show’s introduction. “Williams' imaginative paintings, with his bold use of brilliant colors and superb draftsmanship, offer a timely nod to Davies and his influence on Williams as well as Davies' role in the story of American art history.”
The Gallery’s Exhibition Guide shows examples of Davies’ works held in other museums. The similarities between Davies’ and Williams’ pastels is striking, particularly their landscape and cloud paintings. Another interesting connection is found with Williams’ early Williamsburg, Virginia watercolor and Davies. At least three of Williams’ paintings were used in the restoration of colonial Williamsburg in the 1920’s. And according to Ronnie Owens, daughter of Arthur B. Davies, it was her father who originally recommended Williamsburg to project benefactor John D. Rockefeller, Jr. and his wife Abby Aldrich Rockefeller; perhaps Davies helped procured the project for Williams as well.
Three of the paintings, Vernon Fair and two paintings from Mexico, were featured in a 1931 exhibition at the Syracuse Museum of Fine Arts that paired Williams’ pastels with Davies watercolors. The exhibition was held as a memorial for Davies (he had died three years earlier in Italy) and just two years prior to Williams’ own death. For Williams it was a celebration of his lifelong devotion to art as well as a celebration of his student and artistic inspiration, friend and sketching partner, Arthur B. Davies.
As the 100th anniversary of the Armory Show returns Davies' life to the national spotlight, Impressions of a Friendship provides a fascinating glimpse of life in Cazenovia at the brink of the modern era.
Visitors to the Cazenovia Public Library will also enjoy the lobby display showcasing memorabilia, books, and newspapers from Dwight Williams and the 1913 Armory Show featuring cartoons of Marcel Duchamps’ controversial, Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2
The Cazenovia Public Library Museum and Gallery is open during regular library hours: 9:00 am to 9:00 pm Monday-Friday and 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Saturday. There is no admission charge and parking is free.
