SUMMARY:Gems at the J | Picturing People: Jewish Expressionism
DESCRIPTION:From early cultural eras to avant-garde modern times\, many artists of Jewish descent have depicted the human figure with sympathy and compassion. Whether sharing familial stories\, highlighting social justice concerns\, or communicating humanistic values\, Jewish artists have used the art styles of their time to give expression to the human face and form. Our conversation includes historic to modern images\, a diversity of artists ranging from Pissarro\, Ben Shahn to Stettheimer-and many more- while short videos enrich the artful conversation. \nLynn Berkowitz\, MFA\, BFA\, with a career in art museums and online learning\, has developed an array of award-winning gallery tours\, experiences\, and apps aimed at helping audiences of all ages and abilities engage with a diversity of art ‘isms and approaches. \n Register For Picturing People Lecture Here
