America Modernism & the MAG Collection via ZOOM (60F22) with Lucy Winters Durkin
This event is no longer on sale.
FIVE WEDNESDAYS via ZOOM & ONE GALLERY WALK-THROUGH
OCTOBER 19-NOVEMBER 16
MAG is a rich resource for studies of American Modernism! In these five sessions we will explore the Modernist movement in the United States, beginning with the impact that the patronage of Alfred Stieglitz exerted, the influence of the Armory Show, and how the Modernist movement changed and expanded through the middle of the 20th century. We also will examine how MAG’s collection of Modernism has grown, including MAG’s purchase of part of the Encyclopedia Britannica collection, which brought more than a dozen major works into the collection in one spectacular acquisition. Five zoom sessions, plus a separately scheduled small-group walk-through to look at the works in person.
A ZOOM link will be sent to you the week before the class starts. Hard copies of the lecture will be available for pick up in the Workshop's office, or can be mailed.
