Against the Grain: The Remarkable Life of Artist Bernard Perlin
September 27, 2024 – January 26, 2025
Bernard Perlin was a minority, outsider, gay man, and pursuer of truth, beauty, and justice. This exhibit celebrates and brings deserved visibility to an individual who lived passionately and unapologetically against the grain. Born to Russian Jewish immigrants in 1918, artist-activist Perlin was a talented painter, illustrator, war artist-correspondent, and photographer, who tackled stylistic genres, the horrors of WWII, issues of social justice, and homosexuality with conviction and bravery.
