Douglas B. Dowd, Professor of Art and American Culture Studies, Washington University, St. Louis, and director of the university’s Modern Graphic History Library, will discuss Wyeth’s commercial images and how the artist situated American consumers in a golden past to meet the needs of a nascent, modern advertising business.
The Museum will open at 5:30 p.m. with the lecture at 6 p.m. and a reception to follow. Tickets for events hosted by the Brandywine Conservancy & Museum of Art are non-refundable.
