Honoré Sharrer’s
drawings and paintings depict
meticulous draftsmanship, a bright color
palette and surrealist imagery, as she presents
myth and allegory as
everyday events, engaging unlikely people
and objects in witty juxtapositions. Sharrer
portrays in detail the qualities that distinguish
one individual from another in equally recognizable
scenarios. Art connoisseurs can peruse her
work at
the exhibit, “Humanism and Enigma:
The Art of Honoré Sharrer,” on
display at the University of Virginia’s
Art Museum beginning Saturday through Aug.
20. A gallery talk with guest curator Suzanne
Foley will be held on Saturday at 5 p.m.
at the museum. Full
