# Charles Burchfield: *Elemental*

From Oct 22, 2026 · coming up

Ten watercolors from 1916 to 1960 by Charles Burchfield, all from the Whitney’s collection, on nature, weather and the seasons.

Burchfield’s visionary watercolors turn close observation of meadows, storms and changing seasons into emotional, almost spiritual scenes. The ten works, all from the Whitney’s holdings, include Cricket Chorus in the Arbor (1917), Cold September Rain (1957) and An April Mood (1946–55).

The show marks seventy years since the museum organized his 1956 retrospective. The works are light-sensitive and rarely shown together. It continues a series of collection presentations that has included Wanda Gág, Claes Oldenburg and Andy Warhol.
