Class Description
Explore joint creative expression by considering seven artist couples from the late nineteenth century through the 1960s. Along with O’Keeffe & Stieglitz and Kahlo & Rivera, we investigate the works of the Delaunays, the Eameses, and Krasner & Pollock, among others. Focusing each week on a different pair, we will delve into the complexities of creative enterprise.
Margaret Farr is an independent art historian with a PhD in art history, specializing in art from 1800 to the present. She is also an adjunct lecturer at the Art Institute of Chicago.
