MCA Presents: Kerry James Marshall In Conversation with Sarah Thornton
@ EXPO CHICAGO
Navy Pier | 600 E Grand Ave
Opening Saturday, September 24th, from 2:30PM - 3:30PM
Featuring author and cultural sociologist Sarah Thornton and artist Kerry James Marshall. More panelists forthcoming.
Renowned author and cultural sociologist, Sarah Thornton, will interview Chicago-based artist Kerry James Marshall to align with the closing of his retrospective exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (April 23 – September 25, 2016). Considered one of America’s greatest living painters, Marshall explores African American identity in American history and Western art historical movements—from the Renaissance through twentieth century abstraction—in his signature large-scale interiors, landscapes and portraits. Kerry James Marshall: Mastry, a survey of his paintings from the last 35 years, will soon travel to The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. Presented in partnership with the MCA.
