Trained originally in Abstract Expressionism, Erlebacher (along with her husband Walter) broke from this style in the late 60’s and quickly became recognized as one of the leading representational figurative and still-life artists in America. Erlebacher’s work examines the deep metaphorical and social themes of contemporary culture through her painterly and aesthetic images. This retrospective pays tribute to Martha’s outstanding leadership and tenure at the Academy.
This exhibition is presented in partnership with the Erlebacher family and Seraphin Gallery, Philadelphia.
