Museums: Oklahoma City Museum of Art
Books: 21
Selected Exhibitions: National Academy of Design 1897/1898, Boston Art Club, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Carnegie Institute, Copley Society, National
Association Women Artists, Vose Galleries-Boston Note: Olive Parker Black is best known as a landscape painter of the Northeastern United States. Her Hudson River school paintings also incorporated the influence of her teachers: Barbizon from Hugh Bolton Jones at the Art Students League; free brushwork and impressionism from William Merritt Chase at the New York National Academy of Design (and probably Shinnecock). She was considered one of Chase's best students. Usually quite evident in Black's work are atmospheric effects of the season and time of day.
She exhibited at the National Academy of Design from 1897 to 1930, and in Boston with the Boston Art Club, and in Philadelphia at the Art Club of Philadelphia. In 1910, she moved from her native Cambridge, Massachusetts to New York City, where she exhibited at the National Academy of Design (1897 to 1930). She also exhibited at the Carnegie Institute. She was a member of the National Association of Women Artists, the National Academy of Design, the New York Society of Painters, American Artists Professional League and the Copley Society in Boston.
After moving from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to New York City in 1910, Olive Parker Black continued to summer at South Egremont, Massachusetts, where she painted many of her finest rural landscapes - many with streams weaving through the grassy pastoral countryside. "Stream Through a Summer Landscape" is an exceptional example, quite similar to "Winding Stream" we offered last year, and perhaps depicts the same scene from a different viewpoint.
