Please join us on Friday, March 21 for a tour of the exhibition Art and Graphic Design of the European Avant-Gardes at the Frary Gallery which is located in the new John Hopkins University Bloomberg Center. Led by curator Philipp Penka, the exhibition presents rare, avant-garde artwork, books, photography, and ephemera from Russia, Ukraine, Eastern and Central Europe, and the Baltics from 1910 to 1941. The exhibition brings together more than 75 works—several of which have never been shown in North America—from the Frary Collections, spanning five diverse artistic movements: Futurism, Dadaism, Suprematism, Constructivism, and Surrealism.
In addition to the exhibition tour, Frary Gallery Director Caitlin Berry will lead a tour of the four commissioned artworks in the building by Sam Gilliam, Elias Sime, Sandra Cinto, and Shahzia Sikander.
More information about the exhibition and the Bloomberg Center is available here and here.
Attendance is limited to 20 WPC members and their guests. Members may register for themselves and one guest.
