Fall of the Year, detail

Frank C. Eckmair
Fall of the Year, 1973

The Landscape of Memory explores a singular artistic vision through the Museum’s extensive collection of works by Frank C. Eckmair. An internationally recognized printmaker, Eckmair had an intimate affinity for the quiet landscape of rural central New York. His subjects included its farm fields, stone walls, abandoned homes, and old barns.

Through memory and direct observation, Eckmair created a poignant body of work that invites us to contemplate this historic and beautiful region. It is filled with, as he was known to say, “many things not to be forgotten.”
