Join SAAM’s research fellows for this lunchtime series of gallery talks as they share new discoveries about artworks on view. Learn the stories behind these objects and what each one tells us about the diverse cultural landscape of the United States. Margot Yale, Wyeth Foundation Predoctoral Fellow discusses Marguerite Zorach’s, Untitled (Embroidered Bedspread) (1918).
