Indepth Arts News: "Summer Selections: American Landscape Drawings and Watercolors" 2001-05-29 until 2001-09-02 Metropolitan Museum of Art New York, NY, USA
The origins of the Metropolitan's collection of American works on paper can be traced to
the 1880s—the decade after the Museum was founded. Now numbering more than 1,500
drawings, the Museum's holdings include outstanding examples by some of the nation's
preeminent artists. They are on view infrequently because of their sensitivity to light.
The installation is organized by Kevin J. Avery, associate curator in the Department of
American Paintings and Sculpture, and Claire A. Conway, research assistant, also in the
Department of American Paintings and Sculpture. Graphic design is by Jill
Hammarberg, graphic designer, with lighting by Zack Zanolli, lighting designer.
