Some 100 pieces of Kimble's art will be shown in the museum's round barn.
Kimble's landscapes, barns, domestic and wild animal paintings are familiar, but this retrospective also features many lesser known works, including early pieces from his time as a professor at Castleton State College. It also highlights newer and darker pieces, inspired by the war in Iraq.
We
got a sneak peek of the exhibit during a walk-through with Shelburne
Museum
Director Stephan Jost.
But first we spoke with Warren Kimble from his home in Brandon. Kimble says even though he's achieved a level of critical and financial success any artist would envy...he's feeling a little nervous about how this exhibit in Shelburne will be received.
