The Katonah Museum of Art creates exhibits that enlighten and elucidate, sometimes focusing on a particular artist or a particular medium, sometimes considering a broad category of cultural interest. The Learning Center and museum shop are open during museum hours; there are drop-in programs on weekends. The museum offers family events and provides tours of the main exhibition Tuesday through Sunday at 2:30. Hours are Tuesday-Saturday 10 to 5 and Sunday from 12 to 5. Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for seniors and students; it’s free for children under 12 and everyone’s admitted free from 10 to noon.
Opening June 5 in the museum's Beltzel and Righter Galleries is Double Solitaire: The Surreal Worlds of Kay Sage and Yves Tanguy, the surrealist painters who were married to each other for 15 years. The exhibit, which will run through Sept. 18, will include works from 1937 to 1958, as well as selected photographs of their personal lives, in an examination of how their lives and art intertwined. In the Project Gallery, June 5-Sept. 18, will be Stephen Talasnik: Elusive Landscape: Drawings. A sculptural work by Mr. Talasnik will be a tribute to a painting by Yves Tanguy.
The Katonah Museum is on Route 22 in Katonah, N.Y., at Jay Street. For more information, call 914-232-9555 or visit the new Web site, www.katonahmuseum.org.
