Kathleen Blackshear: American Artist From Texas
Tuesday, November 26, 2024 All day
- LocationJ. Wayne Stark Galleries
- DescriptionShe made a name for herself as a professional artist at a time when the art world was marginalizing women. She was one of the few female faculty members at the Art Institute of Chicago prior to World War II, becoming an innovative teacher known for mentoring her students. During her over 30-year teaching career she influenced generations of art history students, embracing modernism, introducing them to African art, and instilling her constant drive to explore new things into her students. Join us for a Gallery Talk & Reception on Nov. 7, 2024 at 5:30 p.m. in the Stark Galleries with guest speaker Victoria Hennessey Cummins, Ph.D. This exhibition represents the eighth installation in the Texas Art Project (https://uart.tamu.edu/texasartproject/) series.
