The Art of the Simple Life on Unquiet Land: Marguerite and William Zorach in Maine

In-person: Colby College Museum of Art

Friday, November 8, 1:15–2:15 p.m.

Some American Stories, featuring selections from the museum’s American art collection across its Lunder Wing, underscores the complexity of the American experience. Inviting visitors to explore and question long-standing ideas of Americanness, Rebecca Zorach, an art historian and the great-granddaughter of Marguerite and William Zorach, discusses works by the artist couple in the Colby Museum collection. She will draw on a chapter of her recent book, Temporary Monuments, in which she discusses the artists’ lives, works, and legacy in Maine in the context of America’s racial enterprise.

Location Colby College Museum of Art 5600 Mayflower Hill Drive, Waterville
