“The Magic Realism of John Wilde” features paintings and drawings spanning the Wisconsin artist’s remarkable sixty year career. Wilde was a close friend of Gertrude Abercrombie, and together they became leading figures in American Surrealism. Wilde was at times inspired by Abercrombie’s imagery, particularly her use of stark trees and isolated buildings, motifs that subtly appear throughout his work.
