Gallery Talk

This event was recorded. Please view the talk on our Vimeo channel.

John Marin’s vibrant watercolors of Mt. Chocorua in the White Mountains of New Hampshire offer an exhilarating experience of the New England landscape. What’s left of the promises of American Modernism that these works helped usher in?

Led by:
Joachim Homann, Maida and George Abrams Curator of Drawings, Division of European and American Art
