Teens Seen: Art Showcase

Teen artists are powerful interpreters of their lives and the present moment. The Hudson River Museum, in partnership with 16 high schools throughout Westchester County, highlights the complexity and diversity of teen experiences through art. Chosen by art teachers, the wide range of work across diverse media—from paintings and drawings to vector illustrations, lino prints, and cyanotypes—showcases the talent of more than 80 students, as well as the importance of high school art programs. The artworks reveal the depth, tension, and nuance of young adulthood—emphasizing that teenage life is not “easy,” “dramatic,” or “just a phase”—it’s layered, contradictory, and deeply felt. Together, these works offer an unfiltered view of adolescence today—inviting us to look more closely, listen more carefully, and take seriously the perspectives of the next generation of artists. 

Participating Schools Bronxville High School Eastchester High School German International School New York Hackley School Harrison High School Hastings-on-Hudson High School John Jay High School Kennedy Catholic Preparatory School Maria Regina High School The Masters School Pleasantville High School Riverside High School

Black Cowboys in America—Photographs by Ron Tarver

From before the Civil War, Black cowboys played an active role in the building of the American West working alongside white and brown cowboys wrangling horses, branding cattle, and steering herds long distances on cattle drives. They lived a nomadic and often lonely life—one that helped shape the myth of the American cowboy in popular culture as a symbol of this country’s individualism and freedom. Yet, until recently, when Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter album and Pharrell Williams’s Louis Vuitton collection shined a spotlight on the proud history of Black cowboys and cowgirls, their existence has seldom been acknowledged.

In the early 1990s, Ron Tarver, then a photojournalist for The Philadelphia Inquirer, set out to document the rich visual narrative of Black cowboy life. Tarver’s photographs are a tribute to a way of life both enduring and evolving. They capture the beauty, romance, and visual poetry of cowboy culture while reflecting a renewed interest within the Black community in reclaiming its Western roots. This exhibition affirms the thriving culture of Black-owned ranches, rodeo operations, parades, inner-city riders, and retired cowhands—and invites deeper conversation about what it means to be an American cowboy.

A Pulitzer Prize–winning photographer, Ron Tarver distinguished himself in the fields of photojournalism and fine-art photography on the staff of The Philadelphia Inquirer for thirty-two years. He has exhibited his photographs nationally and internationally in over thirty solo and fifty group exhibitions and earned Guggenheim and Pew Fellowships. Currently, Tarver is an associate professor of art at Swarthmore College.

The exhibition is accompanied by the catalog The Long Ride Home: Black Cowboys in America (George F. Thompson Publishing, 2024). The 160-page, fully illustrated volume features more than 100 photographs from Tarver’s series. It has received numerous honors, including a 2025 Gold IPPY Award for Photography, a 2025 Next Generation Indy Book Award Winner in the African American (Nonfiction) category and Best Cover Design (Non-fiction), and a 2024 Foreword Indies Silver Medal for Best Photography Book.

May 29, 2026-March 20, 2027: The Pocantico Center

Woven Wonders: Kykuit’s Picasso Tapestries

Woven Wonders: Kykuit’s Picasso Tapestries showcases eight monumental tapestries based on Pablo Picasso’s bold paintings and handwoven with his approval by Jacqueline de la Baume Dürrbach (1920-1989) between 1955 and 1975. The exhibition explores the origins and painstaking artistry behind this unique commission for Nelson A. Rockefeller and an extraordinary collaboration between artists, curators, and collectors.

Jacqueline de la Baume Dürrbach was trained in low-warp tapestry weaving with a former Aubusson master weaver in Paris. She and her husband, René Dürrbach, ran one of the few French studios that combined the medieval tapestry tradition with the 20th-century Abstract Art movement by creating weavings after designs by modern artists. Over the course of this 20-year collaboration, de la Baume Dürrbach developed a friendly working relationship with Picasso, who trusted her to translate his brushstrokes into textile. 

This will be the first time since the 2014 exhibition at the San Antonio Museum of Art that the tapestries are on view outside of Kykuit. A catalogue published by the San Antonio Museum of Art containing color plates of the tapestries and essays on the history of the commissions, the original paintings, and correspondence between Rockefeller, Picasso, and the weavers is available here.

Location: The Pocantico Center, 200 Lake Road, Tarrytown Dates/Times: May 29, 2026-March 20, 2027. Fridays, 11 am-3 pm; Saturdays, 11 am-4 pm. Free guided exhibition tours on the first Saturday of each month, at 2 pm Cost: free

Ever Becoming: Our Stories, Our America

This year, the United States commemorates the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. While this milestone marks a pivotal moment in 1776, it also invites reflection on how the nation has been continuously shaped, challenged, and reimagined over time. The Museum’s collection—spanning the 19th century to the present—offers insight into this ongoing process, expressing diverse aspects of the American experience in all its complexity.

Throughout the year, we are marking this momentous occasion with special exhibitions and displays of artworks and historical objects throughout the Museum. The first presentation highlights the work of folk artists, self-trained painters, and craftspeople who express popular-culture interests and traditions, starting with a quilt made by three Yonkers women to honor the US Bicentennial and the origins and growth of the city of Yonkers. Nearby, a group of maritime paintings by James Bard underscores the vital role of ships in the development of a modern, mobile nation. Downstairs in Everything Has a Story: Reflections on the Collection, a folk-art table embellished with a forty-star American flag commemorates the centennial of George Washington’s inauguration in New York City.
