Wave Hill, in partnership with the American Society of Botanical Artists, are collaboratively celebrating the tradition and contemporary practice of botanical art with the 21st Annual International exhibition ~ and what a beautiful time of year to visit Wave Hill.

The exhibition includes botanical artworks by 47 international artists from the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Japan, Russia, Slovenia and the UK are presented. The artists’ renderings of exotic and native flowers, fruits, roots, and trees provide unique points of view with precise attention to detail that astonish and provoke close observation. A number of pieces that highlight specimens found at Wave Hill can be seen in the north gallery. Interpretations of exotic plants continue in the middle gallery, and the south gallery underscores the passage of time associated with autumnal colors and deterioration.
