Robert Motherwell, Adolph Gottlieb, and Herbert Ferber—each of whom went on to become a major figure in the Abstract Expressionist movement—created, respectively, a large-scale lobby mural, a velvet Torah curtain, and a monumental exterior sculptural relief. In addition to these works, the exhibition includes studies and photographs. Meet in the museum lobby. Because space is limited, this tour is for WEG members only. Cost: $18/person. After the tour, we will return to PAS for a light supper and a talk by Pat Davidson about Gottlieb’s stained glass windows. $ & For more information and to RSVP contact Marilyn Friedman at MBF300@aol.com or 212-472-0642.
