Rory McEwen Exhibition

  • Driehaus Museum Address: 50 E Erie Steet Chicago, IL 60611 USA (map)

This exhibition goes through August 17, 2025. A polymath at heart, a searcher, the work of Scottish botanical artist Rory McEwen (1932-1982) nevertheless reflects a sustained intensity of focus on the artistic pursuits that defined his life. McEwen was singularly devoted to the technical aspects and traditions of his crafts and how, in the case of his paintings, they enabled him to capture, in the minutest of detail, the essence of his subjects—plants of all kind—in all their organic beauty.
