SUMMARY:The Kalmbach Art Collection: Pairing Words and Imagery
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception—May 16\, 5-8 p.m. featuring a presentation by Kevin Keefe at 6 p.m. \nDon’t miss the first public exhibition of Kalmbach Media’s historic art collection. Totaling fifty-nine original paintings\, “The Kalmbach Art Collection: Pairing Words and Imagery” is a pillar of rail-themed art filled with landmark works from Howard Fogg\, George Gloff\, Gil Reid\, Ted Rose\, John Swatsley\, and many others. \nThe Center for Railroad Photography & Art (CRP&A) (www.railphoto-art.org | @railphotoart) and the Grohmann Museum have collaborated to present this historic exhibition which celebrates the importance of imagery in Kalmbach’s printed materials and the company’s collaborations with artists. Strong bonds formed between the company’s editorial staff and the artists they hired or commissioned; they helped each other. Artwork brought publications to life while words added context and meaning to the paintings. This pairing of images and words created decades of memorable stories for railroad enthusiasts. \nExhibit runs May 16 to Aug. 19\, 2025. \n
