This presentation will look at the works of selected Jewish artists in the United States examining how they represent their worlds, what their stories tell us & how they have influenced the art world.
20th Century Jewish Artists: Outsiders, Innovators or Trendsetters presented by Marion Fass.
Art is created in a social context, influenced by the inner life of the artist and the world in which he or she lives. For Jews in the end of the 19th century and through the 20th century, the world in which they lived was changing rapidly, often traumatizing ways. This presentation will look at the works of selected immigrant and first-generation Jewish artists in the United States, from Marc Chagall to Judy Chicago, examining how they represent their worlds, what their stories tell us and how they have influenced the art world.
Presented by the NSU Art Museum's Docent Speakers Bureau and sponsored by the Friends of the Galt Ocean Mile Reading Center.
