Props/Nature Mort in the NewTV Gallery
By Melinda Gordon, Curator

Items on tables, or the tables themselves, are found everywhere in our everyday life. When they are found on the set of a TV show or theatre production, they are called “Props.” When they are depicted on canvas they are called, “Nature Mort” or “Still Life.” Both the English and French terms indicate, in opposite ways, a moment frozen in time , as the French is literally translated, “Dead Nature.” That is certainly what we look out upon during these Winter months. But on the gallery walls at NewTV are bright flowers, luscious fruits, and table settings forever ready for company.
