Join curator Debra Bricker Balken on Zoom for an exploration of Americans in Paris: Artists Working in Postwar France, 1946–1962, on view at the Addison Gallery of American Art through January 5, 2025.
The exhibition delves into the various circles of American artists who made France their home during the post-World War II era, and investigates the academies where many studied, the spaces where their work was exhibited, their interactions with European artists, and the overarching issue of what it meant to be an American abroad.
This program will be recorded. Everyone who registers will be sent a link to the recording.
