Panoramic Light: The Art of Hansen Mulford

October 16–December 11, 2026

This solo exhibition features the studio work of Hansen Mulford, offering a rare look into the personal artistic vision of one of Central Florida’s most respected arts professionals. Known for his contemplative compositions and evocative use of space and light, Mulford creates paintings that invite viewers into quiet moments of reflection, often drawing from themes of nature, memory, and mood.

Widely recognized for his 40-year tenure as Chief Curator at the Orlando Museum of Art, Mulford played a pivotal role in shaping and elevating Central Florida’s visual arts community.

This exhibition, his first solo show at Crealdé School of Art, turns the spotlight toward his own creative journey—presenting a body of work that complements his curatorial legacy with quiet resonance and artistic depth.
