California artist Joseph Kleitsch (1882-1931) moved to the burgeoning art colony of Laguna Beach in 1920. Already an established portrait and plein air painter, Kleitsch became enchanted with Laguna and would go on to create numerous paintings of the seaside village and its surroundings.
The Laguna Plein Air Painters Association (LPAPA), in conjunction with the Laguna Art Museum’s exhibition “Joseph Kleitsch: Abroad and at Home in Old Laguna,” is delighted to bring “Inspired by Joseph Kleitsch” to the LPAPA Gallery celebrating the past, present and future of California Impressionism.
More from LPAPA:
Featured are paintings by LPAPA Signature Artists Rick Delanty, Calvin Liang, Jim McVicker, Lisa Mozzini-McDill, Michael Obermeyer, Scott Prior, Lori Putnam, and Aaron Schuerr.
The LPAPA Gallery and Laguna Art Museum Kleitsch exhibitions continue through September 24, 2023.
This is a historical “must-see” exhibition, so be sure to plan your visit this summer! In the meantime, enjoy viewing the art through our interactive art catalog at https://lpapa.org/060123-kleitsch-inspired-lpapa-gallery-art-show/.
