The Richardson Society recently had the opportunity to participate in an artist conversation with John Alexander and Bradley Sumrall, Curator of the Collection for the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Together, they explored the narrative of nature and the ecological symbolism in Mr. Alexander’s work.
