Make a stop at Kaatsbaan during your Upstate Art Weekend travels!

The 2026 Visual Art Exhibition, Earthly Delights, presents artistic works evoking planets, plants, insects, and other biological forms erupting out of the mystical Kaatsbaan landscape. These unique pieces created by nine contemporary artists working predominantly in the Hudson Valley offer an inspiring alchemy of structure, form, beauty, and soul. The exhibition is curated by Hilary Greene and runs through October 31.

This season, Aurora Robson returns with a tree-climbing, recycled-plastic installation new to Kaatsbaan. Joining her, Ian McMahon’s barn-mounted geometric relief, and Portia Munson’s mystical banner are six new artists: Thea Berman’s figurative oils and Sharon Broit’s biological abstracts in the gallery; Laura Battle’s esoteric ceramic clouds, Kris Perry’s machine creatures, and a spiritual carving by Nadia Yaron on the grounds; and sensorial videos by Virginia L. Montgomery mounted in the Stanford White Barn. In addition, we are honored to continue to exhibit two of Gaston Lachaise’s world-renowned bronzes on long-term loan by the Lachaise Foundation.
