THURSDAY CLASSESNosh and Knowledge: World War I and American ArtInstructor: Monica Zimmerman,

Director of Museum Education,

Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts

Coinciding with the centenary of America’s involvement with the war, World War I and American

Art will be the first major exhibition devoted to exploring the ways in which American artists reacted to the First World War. The war's impact on art and culture was enormous, as nearly all of the era's major American artists interpreted their experiences, opinions and perceptions of the conflict through their work. This lecture will explore PAFA's exhibition themes and images as well as discuss the artists who chronicled their experiences of the unfolding war as it crept closer to home and then involved them directly as soldiers, relief workers, political dissenters, and official war artists. As the first major museum exhibition to revisit this unprecedented global event through the eyes of American artists, World War I and

American Art will transform the current understanding of art created during the war and in its wake.Coffee and cake included
