Journey back to the 1890s and the heart of Manhattan's Gilded Age when architect Stanford White and sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens dazzled New York with the brand-new pleasure palace Madison Square Garden, topped by a scandalous sculpture of the virgin goddess Diana. Join art historian and author of The Grandest Madison Square Garden, Suzanne Hinman, for a visual exploration of both men and their work on American culture, from their boundary-pushing aesthetics to White's notorious murder in 1906 on the Garden's rooftop. Refreshments will be served.
Suzanne Hinman, Ph.D., has taught art history at the University of New Mexico, owned a gallery in Santa Fe, and served as director of galleries at the Savannah College of Art and Design and associate director of the Hood Museum at Dartmouth.
