Introducing Abstract Expressionism: The American Movement

David Brashear, Director of the Muscarelle Museum of Art, sets the groundwork for the Muscarelle's Spring 2023 lecture series, Modern Masters at the Margins. As the U.S. worked its way through the Great Depression, an artistic energy developed in New York, in part driven by the WPA’s public art program. A group of artists, working both uptown and downtown, began to move away from representational art and focus their efforts on new approaches to abstraction. Some were more established, and some were relative newcomers. Some were older, and some were younger. Many were men, but some were women — and people at the margins were part of the artistic conversation. In this talk, Brashear identifies the players who changed the world of art and moved its international locus from Paris to New York.
