The Yale Club of New York City | The Dance of Life: Figure & Imagination in American Art with Mark D. Mitchell
Join Mark D. Mitchell, the Holcombe T. Green Curator of American Paintings and Sculpture at the Yale University Art Gallery, for a special look at the Gallery’s current exhibition, "The Dance of Life: Figure and Imagination in American Art, 1876–1917," on view until January 5, 2025. This stunning display of intimate pencil sketches, sensuous pastels, dynamic bronzes, and virtuosic oil studies explores the creative practices of artists during the American Renaissance, a pivotal period in the history of American art at the turn of the twentieth century.
About the Speaker:
Before coming to Yale in 2015, Mark D. Mitchell previously worked at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, National Academy Museum, Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College, and Princeton University Art Museum. His research interests in American art extend from the colonial period to the later twentieth century in all media, with particular depth in landscape, figure, and still life painting.
