About the event

“How Did We Get Here? Thoughts on American Painting in the United States”

John R. Stomberg, Virginia Rice Kelsey 1961s Director

Using the collections at the Hood Museum of Art as his primary focus, Stomberg will share thoughts on the endlessly fascinating, and frustratingly elusive, idea of “American” painting. This lecture coincides with the Hood Museum’s presentation of twelve exhibitions inspired by the 250th anniversary of the United States. A reception will follow in Russo Atrium.
