Webinar
This spring, the Albright-Knox is presenting a member-exclusive online series of conversations with Chief Curator Cathleen Chaffee. This second lecture in the series focuses on a few key examples of living rooms that helped introduce artists and collectors who supported their work in the modern era. This study of the importance of art's circulation in domestic life will include a discussion of several important modern salons, and the collectors, including Gertrude Stein and Katherine Dreier, around which they orbited.

About the Series
This spring, the Albright-Knox is presenting a member-exclusive online series of conversations with Chief Curator Cathleen Chaffee. At a moment when many of us are spending an unprecedented amount of time at home, uncover the way art has been lived with in domestic spaces, how museums have evolved from such private spaces and collections, and how modern artists have provocatively evoked the home or re-created domestic space as part of their work. Each hour-long lecture will be broadcast live, and you will have the opportunity to submit questions for discussion at the end. Learn More and View Schedule
