LH Talk with Alastair Gordon | In the American Grain: Wharton Esherick, Wendell Castle and the Studio Craft Movement
Sunday, September 6 | 3:00pm
In this LH Talk, Alastair Gordon will place the work of Wharton Esherick (1887- 1970)—the quintessential woodblock printer and premier furniture maker of the 20th century and collected in depth by Jack Lenor Larsen—into historical context as an idiosyncratic, hand-shaped, and deeply personal offshoot of American modernism. Further, he will discuss how Wendell Castle (1932-2018), as heir apparent, perpetuated and expanded upon Esherick’s legacy with a collection of stack-laminate pieces that completely erased the line between furniture and sculpture.

Two of the twentieth century's most fearless artists. One marriage. One catastrophe. And one woman who turned an unbearable grief into some of the boldest paintings of her career. New York Theatre Ballet presents a dance theatre portrait of Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock and the period that gave rise to Krasner's "Umber" paintings, including the raw, intensely gestural canvas "Uncaged". The piece ends where that painting begins: Krasner disappearing into the work itself.
