San Francisco, CA | Guided Tour of ‘Amy Sherald: American Sublime’ at SFMOMA
December 12 | 4:00 pm – 5:15 pm
Join ArtTable at SFMOMA an exclusive guided tour of Amy Sherald: American Sublime with Auriel Garza, Curatorial Assistant, Painting & Sculpture.
About the exhibition: Amy Sherald: American Sublime invites you to breathe. Come and be taken in by the colors, shapes, and forms painted by one of America’s defining contemporary portraitists. This exhibition presents nearly 50 of Amy Sherald’s luminous paintings, including her iconic portraits of Michelle Obama and Breonna Taylor, poetic early works, and new works on view for the first time. Sherald’s artworks convey the quiet power in everyday people and invite viewers to participate in a more complex debate about accepted notions of American identity. In the spirit of great American artists like Edward Hopper, Alice Neel, and Kerry James Marshall, Sherald’s works reframe our understanding of American culture. American Sublime is organized thematically, with each gallery presenting a crucial idea in her work and explaining her detailed approach to making paintings. Learn more about Sherald’s central themes.
Accessibility note: SFMOMA offers gallery stools, wheelchairs, and canes at the Coat Check on Floor 1 as you enter at 151 Third Street. Benches are installed at several points in the galleries.
