9:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
A brilliant display of colorful prints is on display at the de Young. Opening in conjunction with the inauguration of the Anderson Collection at Stanford University, the de Young’s exhibition illuminates how artists of the past 60 years -- including such greats as Josef Albers, Anni Albers, Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Ad Reinhardt, and Frank Stella -- have used color as a principal element in their printmaking. Individually, each work explores color as its primary subject; shown collectively, the featured works investigate the aesthetic qualities of modern print processes such as lithography and screenprint.
Celebrating the Spectrum features some of the most significant prints in the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco's Anderson GraphicArts Collection
This will be an artist-led talk with Binta Ayofemi, an artist who lectures on art and design at SFMOMA, Stanford University, and California College of the Arts.
Join us afterwards for coffee or lunch at the museum cafe. The cost is $20 plus admission to the museum. This event is a joint event of the Harvard and Radcliffe Clubs of SF. It is open to members of the clubs and their guests. RSVP directly to rcsfmuseum@fastmail.fm
