Steerage, Alfred Stieflitz
Last night at Samuel’s Public Library in Front Royal I attended the first of several lectures on American Modernism by Ben Glenn II, an art historian and writer. This is a four-part series and last night he discussed 1900-1917 and spoke about many artists of that time period including John Marin, Arthur Dove, Georgia O’Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz.
We spent time looking at many pieces of art of that time period and he discussed the importance of Alfred Stieglitz and the gallery (291) that he helped establish. It’s a fascinating time. Read more about Stieglitz here.
The next lecture is Tuesday, March 17th at 6:30. Check out the series here.
