Description
Heather Hole, assistant curator, Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico
Considered one of the great early American modernists, Marsden Hartley (1877–1943) traveled the United States in search of a distinctly American aesthetic. Hole will examine the evolution of Hartley’s depictions of the American West and explore the modernist debates about American art and national identity that they reflect.
