SUMMARY:coffee with a curator
DESCRIPTION:register now\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Center Shifts: Paris\, New York and Giacometti in a Post-War World\n\n\n\nJoin us for this month’s installment of our Coffee with a Curator series\, where Museum staff or invited guests speak on a range of Salvador Dalí-inspired topics. \n\n\n\nIn conjunction with our special exhibition\, Alberto Giacometti & Salvador Dalí\, we are pleased to welcome back guest speaker H. Alexander Rich\, Ph.D.\, for an engaging lecture\, The Center Shifts: Paris\, New York and Giacometti in a Post-War World\, examining Alberto Giacometti’s work and influence in the shifting cultural landscape of the postwar era. \n\n\n\nBefore World War II\, Paris had been the center of all things avant-garde in art for the preceding century. It is where major movements like Impressionism\, Fauvism\, Cubism and Surrealism were birthed and where artists like Monet\, Picasso\, Matisse\, Dalí and Giacometti rose to worldwide fame. After 1945\, everything changed\, as all eyes turned to New York City\, transforming the trajectory of the art world and the development of modern art as we know it today. \n\n\n\nIn this lecture\, H. Alexander Rich\, Ph.D.\, will explore the seismic shift of the modern art world from Paris to New York in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War and how the influence of artists like Giacometti and the exhibition of their work in the United States elevated their stardom and propelled the rise of modern American art movements like Abstract Expressionism. \n\n\n\nLocation: The Dalí Museum’s Will Raymund Theater (registration required) or live on YouTube (link below).This event is free with limited capacity. An event ticket is required for entry.Gallery access is not included. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo watch the live stream from home\, click below at the time of the program: \n\n\n\n\nstream now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nH. Alexander Rich\, Ph.D. \n\n\n\nH. Alexander Rich is president and CEO of the Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston\, SC. Before taking the helm of the Gibbes in summer 2025\, Dr. Rich was executive director and chief curator of the Ashley Gibson Barnett Museum of Art at Florida Southern College\, in Lakeland\, where he was also a tenured professor of art history and chair of the College’s Department of Art History and Museum Studies. Dr. Rich is a specialist in Modern and Contemporary art history\, with a particular focus on European and American art of the 19th and 20th centuries. He earned his Ph.D. in Art History from the Institute of Fine Arts\, New York University\, and his A.B. from Dartmouth College.   \n\n\n\nA native of New York City\, Dr. Rich is also curator of more than sixty far-ranging and acclaimed museum exhibitions\, including Masters of Spain: Goya and Picasso\, Rembrandt’s Academy\,Chagall: Stories into Dreams\, Toulouse-Lautrec and the Belle Époque\, The Art of the Highwaymen and Rockwell/Wyeth: Icons of Americana at The AGB. Prior to his professorship at Florida Southern\, Dr. Rich taught previously in both the History of Art Department at the Fashion Institute of Technology\, State University of New York and in the City University of New York system. During his undergraduate and graduate studies he also worked and interned in both curatorial and education capacities at museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Whitney Museum\, the Brooklyn Museum and the Hood Museum of Art in Hanover\, NH.  \n\n\n\nIn Charleston\, Dr. Rich is currently overseeing a major expansion of the Gibbes Museum as he guides the nearly 170-year institution into its next chapter.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Dorothea Tanning
DESCRIPTION:register now\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJoin us at The Dalí for an evening exploring the extraordinary life and imagination of one of Surrealism’s most compelling figures\, Dorothea Tanning. \n\n\n\nArt historian and curator Alyce Mahon will present her latest book\, Dorothea Tanning: A Surrealist World\, a groundbreaking study that reconsiders the history of Surrealism through the visionary work of Dorothea Tanning. Blending biography\, art history\, and visual exploration\, this lecture offers a deeper look into Tanning’s enduring impact on Surrealism and modern art.Guests will have the opportunity to engage with Mahon during a Q&A and learn more about the ideas behind this important new publication.Location: The Dalí Museum’s Will Raymund Theater \n\n\n\nThis event is free with limited capacity. An event ticket is required for entry.Gallery access is not included. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlyce Mahon MA\, PhD \n\n\n\nAlyce Mahon specialises in Modern and Contemporary Art History and Theory. She studied the History of Art & Architecture and Modern English at Trinity College Dublin\, graduating with a double first and gold medal for exceptional academic achievement. Awarded both Chevening and British Academy scholarships for doctoral studies she moved to London to pursue a PhD at the Courtauld Institute of Art. She received her doctorate in 1999 and took up her position at Cambridge in 2000 when she was also elected Fellow of Trinity College Cambridge.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDorothea Tanning: A Surrealist World \n\n\n\nBorn on the day of a hurricane in Galesburg\, Illinois\, Dorothea Tanning (1910–2012) would become a figure at the very heart of the avant-garde\, among a close circle of contemporaries including Joseph Cornell\, Max Ernst\, Lee Miller and Man Ray. Her art and philosophical ideas reveal her transformative impact on post-war Surrealism\, and her life story reveals how she skilfully navigated her role as a woman artist on the international stage. Alyce Mahon maps Tanning’s extraordinary seventy-year career―from Chicago and Arizona to Paris and Seillans\, through to her final years in New York―and traces how these landscapes were reshaped into kaleidoscopic imagined worlds in her paintings\, sculptures and writings. \n\n\n\nAvailable for purchase on Amazon.com
