Ireland Regnier, Clemson University Professor Emeritus of Painting, Mounts Solo Exhibition at Clemson City Hall


Tuesday, May 19th: Artists Reception with Ireland Regnier

Clemson City Hall
1250 Tiger Blvd., Clemson, SC

5:00-7:00 pm

This special exhibit of his work will be in the Clemson City Hall throughout the summer.  Ireland Regnier is a professor emeritus in the Art Department at Clemson University. He taught painting until his retirement in 1988. Regnier served in the Pacific Theater during World War II, where he was a machine gunner and awarded the Bronze Star.

Regnier's work stands apart from the romantic, awe-inspiring projections of traditional landscapes. "Regnier finds the beauty not in the grandiose, but the simplicity of light and sky, of being struck by the little spots in everyday life. His landscapes speak to a greater perspective on painting and on life," according to Lee Gallery Director Denise Woodward-Detrich.
