SUMMARY:Curator’s Tours: For Which It Stands… at Fairfield University Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:A series of curator-led tours exploring the exhibition For Which It Stands… will take place throughout the spring at the Fairfield University Art Museum\, 1073 North Benson Road\, Fairfield\, CT 06824. \nLed by Carey Weber\, curator of the exhibition and executive director of the Fairfield University Art Museum\, these tours offer an in-depth look at the works and themes behind the exhibition. Each session focuses on a single gallery location\, either the Bellarmine Hall Galleries or the Walsh Gallery at the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts. \nTour dates include Thursday\, March 26 at 5:30 pm in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries; Thursday\, April 30 at 12 pm in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries; Thursday\, April 30 at 5:30 pm at the Walsh Gallery in the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts; Wednesday\, May 27 at 12 pm at the Walsh Gallery; and Thursday\, June 18 at 5:30 pm in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries. \nThe exhibition examines depictions of the American flag through more than 70 works by a diverse group of artists\, beginning with Childe Hassam’s Italian Day\, May 1918\, created during World War I\, and continuing to contemporary works\, including a textile sculpture commissioned for the exhibition by Maria de Los Angeles. The presentation features works in a variety of media by artists such as Jasper Johns\, Faith Ringgold\, Robert Rauschenberg\, Shepard Fairey\, and Julie Mehretu\, encouraging viewers to reflect on the evolving symbolism of the American flag and the ideals it represents. \nFor Which It Stands… is part of America250: The Promise and Paradox\, an initiative through which Fairfield University explores 250 years of the American experiment. \nFor more information about the tours and exhibition\, visit the Fairfield University Art Museum website.
