Toby Jurovics, the Joslyn Art Museum’s chief curator and Holland Curator of American Western Art, will present an illustrated overview of the exhibition “Wild Spaces, Open Seasons,” and key works by featured artists at noon on Wednesday in the Sorrell Center, Room 2010.
“Wild Spaces, Open Seasons” is the first major exhibition to explore American artists’ fascination with hunters, fishermen, and the sporting life in paintings and sculptures from the 1820s through the 1940s. Illuminating changing ideas about place, national identity, community, wildlife and the environment, the exhibition offers compelling new insights into these meaningful pastimes.
Please RSVP by 4 p.m. today if you plan to attend this event. A minimum of 10 people is required or the lecture will be canceled.
This event is offered through the Passport Partners Program, which provides free museum admission for UNMC and Nebraska Medicine employees, students and their immediate families, with valid identification. The partnership also offers lectures, workshops and other events on the medical center campus.
