A regional art gallery has, among its responsibilities, that of providing exposure and interpretation of the work of artists in its locale. The present exhibition is a manifestation of that responsibility. It is with a great deal of pleasure that we are able to offer this survey of the work of Milly Ristvedt-Handerek. We hope our exhibition will demonstrate the richness and strength of her artistic personality, her maturation as an artist dealing with modernist concerns from a personal and vitally involved point of view. The idea of a solo exhibition seems to be losing credence as a vehicle for exposure. To us this is a great loss since it is only through such exhibitions can one come to terms with an artistic personality in all its complexities.
