REBECCA CAMPBELL

In collaboration with The Lancaster Museum of Art and History (MOAH), The Potato Eaters is a contemporary reflection on the works of Rebecca Campbell&rsquo,s 2016 exhibition. Campbell&rsquo,s new series of work examines aspects of family and cultural history, memory, documentation and nostalgia. The title is taken from Vincent van Gogh&rsquo,s 1885 masterpiece that portrays Dutch peasants gathered at a meager meal. As in van Gogh&rsquo,s celebrated work that addresses themes of noble human existence and connection to the land, Campbell references her family history and relatives who lived in Idaho during the early and mid-twentieth century.102 ,pages, ,22 photographs, ,26 paintings_,
