Their work touches the viewer in dramat ic ways through rich\, saturated color\, meticulous line and brushwork \, and the mature and confident approach each takes to articulating hi s or her message.\nThe late Murray Dessner created landscapes of color whose layers both recede and explode. (Dessner died Sept. 22.) Elizab eth Osborne&rsquo\;s highly saturated compositions make use of vivid c olor combinations and rhythmic brush strokes.\nBruce Samuelson&rsquo\; s work\, while more intimate in scale than that of his colleagues\, co nveys a similar sense of grandeur\, using the structure of the human t orso as his leitmotif. Vincent Desiderio creates narrative works that incorporate life lessons and events.\nThe exhibition is curated by Lisa Tremper Hanover\, director and CEO of the James Michener Art Museum an d past director of the Berman Museum of Art.\nThe Philip and Muriel Be rman Museum of Art at Ursinus College\, known for its diverse collecti on and innovative educational programming\, is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.\ , Tuesday through Friday\, and noon to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunda y.
