The Art of Elizabeth Catlett from the Collection of Samella Lewis

Presented by Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Art Gallery, College of the Holy Cross at Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Art Gallery, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester MA

Ongoing
The Art of Elizabeth Catlett from the Collection of Samella Lewis

Widely recognized as one of the more important artists of the 20thcentury, Elizabeth Catlett (1915 – 2012) was a printmaker and sculptor whose career spanned more than 6 decades.

The Art of Elizabeth Catlett comprises prints and sculpture created between 1946 and 1996, exploring the many themes that permeate Catlett’s work: social and racial justice, motherhood, and the Black-American experience; and includes works by Catlett’s husband Francisco Mora and student and long-time friend, Samella Lewis.

This exhibition was organized by Landau Travelling Exhibitions, Los Angeles, California.
