In-Sight Evenings: Looking Deeper and Differently
Arthur M. Sackler Museum @ 485 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02138
Laura Muir, Assistant Curator of the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art, Harvard Art Museums
American-born modernist Lyonel Feininger (1871–1956) is most closely identified with his luminous prismatic paintings of medieval German towns and churches, but he was also a gifted and surprisingly innovative photographer. This lecture will explore Harvard’s extensive holdings of the artist’s little-known photographic work.
This popular series of special evenings features talks by curators, after-hours viewing of the galleries, live music, conversation, and refreshments. Enjoy all the Art Museums have to offer! Evenings begin at 6pm; lectures begin at 6:30pm.
Tickets to individual evenings are $25 (members and Harvard students $20). To register, call 617-495-0534 or email am_membership@harvard.edu. Space is limited. Complimentary parking at the Broadway Garage, 7 Felton Street.
This lecture is made possible in part by generous support from the Emily Rauh Pulitzer and Joseph Pulitzer Jr. Fund for Modern and Contemporary Art, Harvard Art Museums.
