Curator's Choice: The New Deal

Discover the impact of the New Deal on the art world at The Wolfsonian on Friday, September 27. Join curator Lea Nickless and Marianne Lamonaca, former Wolfsonian associate director, for a discussion on the government-sponsored art projects that emerged during the Great Depression.

Learn about the artists commissioned to create paintings, sculptures and murals as part of these initiatives and explore their lasting influence on the cultural landscape. The conversation will focus on works featured in the museum’s The Big World: Alternative Landscapes in the Modern Era exhibition.
