I love this trend to pairing food with the art. A friend and I had a similar experience at the National Gallery in DC, offering Spanish dishes in connection with an exhibit of some Spanish artists.

I thought the same way until I read a number of biographies.

She also left him for 6-8 months at a time so that she could go off and paint. <br /><br />Sorry you found the mentions of Stieglitz oppressive but the show was only stating the trugh.

I thought the show was almost oppressive in its treatment of how important Stieglitz was to her personally and professionally - he and his family are mentioned at every turn and on many of the raisons. And then the stinker went and had an affair! He was a mixed blessing.Zoomiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16474153316588551039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5732224038883472327.post-67368481976967472502014-03-10T11:10:52.471-07:002014-03-10T11:10:52.471-07:00The purple pansy painting is part of the de Young&...The purple pansy painting is part of the de Young's permanent collection so it will be there once the show closes. I think that the de Young also owns a couple more of her works. If anything, the show downplayed the enormous influence Stieglitz had on her career. It is very possible that without his sponsorship and promotion that she would have been an unknown art teacher all her life. Very few women artists of that era - or any others - have risen to such fame.<br />Nancy Ewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116290968007398337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5732224038883472327.post-85683195307994774432014-03-10T10:46:21.514-07:002014-03-10T10:46:21.514-07:00That salad is a work of art!That salad is a work of art!Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08255032914854206547noreply@blogger.com
