(CLINTON, NJ) -- The Hunterdon Art Museum announces its latest exhibitions. "Paul Deery – Bach in Color: The Goldberg Variations," "Contemporary Artists Respond," a group exhibition and "Christine Romanell – Cosmic Crossing" an Augmented Reality experience. All three run from January 25 through April 26, 2026.

Each of these exhibitions feature a dynamic range of art that explores visualizations of musical compositions, musings on the State of New Jersey’s 250th anniversary and explorations of color and repetitive patterns via Augmented Reality. 

“Paul Deery: Bach in Color: The Goldberg Variations” features a series of pigmented works on paper. The artist spent years constructing a visual language to translate Bach’s Goldberg Variations into a beautiful symphony of constructed color. This exhibition features the entire series as well as supplemental materials and notes from Deery’s deep inquiry of these storied compositions.

“Contemporary Artists Respond” is a group exhibition featuring Bonnie Berkowitz, Heejung Kim, Krystle Lemonias, Lauren Rosenthal McManus, Liz Mitchell, and Elie Porter Trubert. Each artist was asked to respond to themes including from diversity, land and resources, liberty, justice, equality, and migration. Collectively, these artworks allow us to understand history not as a distant concept, but as a continuous flow of influence that shapes our identity in the present.
