MUSEUM EXHIBITION DATES: May 13 – August 27, 2022
Carl Milles Fredericks, named after Swedish sculptor Carl Milles, was known as a local business leader in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, California, where he resided, and supporter of the arts. Carl acquired a collection of his father’s art, including that of Carl Milles following the death of his parents. The Museum curated an exhibition of these artworks to share the recent donation of collection objects in memory of Carl and Christina Fredericks.
The collection of 34 sculptures and 7 figure drawings represented in this exhibition were graciously donated by the late Carl and Christina (Mulholland) Fredericks. In addition to the Fredericks’s donation, the Museum has displayed fifteen of Marshall Fredericks’s figurative drawings, conserved at the Midwest Art Conservation Center in Minneapolis. Carl’s oral history conducted in 2009 with interviewer, Janet Rentsch will be available for viewing within the gallery. This exhibition will be on display until August 27, 2022 in person and indefinitely on the Museum Musing virtual site.
