Artists Around a Table: Artmaking and Merrymaking, 1927-1952 in the John Brady Print Gallery

“Artists Around a Table” presents works on paper made by a vibrant social network of artist-printmakers who moved between New York City, Woodstock, Paris, and beyond in the first decades of the 20th century. Drawing on a wealth of prints from Iowa collections including the Des Moines Art Center, the Stanley Museum of Art, the Figge Art Museum, and private individuals, this exhibition presents rollicking depictions of artists gabbing, preening, debating, smoking, and drinking in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s.
