Curation


Brilliant juxtaposition at the Neuberger Museum of Art at SUNY Purchase: George Segal's "Appalachian Farm Couple, 1936" (1978) and Whitfield Lovell's "Bringer" (1999). Both are based on photographs, Segal's on one by Ben Shahn for the WPA, Lovell's on one of the found photographs of unnamed African Americans his work memorializes.
