Patron, Circle, Fellow, and Sponsor members

The art of preeminent American modernist Stuart Davis (1892–1964) feels especially vital today in its blurring of distinctions between text and image, high and low culture, and abstraction and figuration. Explore the exhibition during tours led by Joan Tisch Teaching Fellows. A light wine reception follows the tours.

This program was offered previously on June 22 and July 18, 2016.
