Frances Stephens

The Jung Center of Houston has selected Frances Carter Stephens (Col ’74 CM) as one of the artists on their 2022 exhibition schedule. Titled Beautiful the Wild, the exhibition will present more than a dozen of her recent abstract oil paintings and one conceptual three dimensional work.  The works express untamed nature–vivid and sometimes unpredictable–as experienced along Texas’s Gulf Coast.  They explore elements of earth, sky, and weather as aspects of the abstract landscape and their dynamic impact on our world.  References to gardens and the changing seasons evoke the life cycle–birth, growth, decline, and death, and all of its fierce emotions.  Beautiful the Wild will be on view at The Jung Center of Houston, 5200 Montrose Boulevard, from February 16 through March 31, 2022.  The exhibition is free and open to the public during the Jung Center’s normal business hours.  A public reception with the artist is scheduled for Saturday, March 19 from 5 to 7 pm.
