This gallery tour, co-sponsored by UGA’s Interdisciplinary Modernism/s Workshop and the Georgia Museum of Art, in conjunction with the “The Genius of Phillis Wheatley Peters: A Poet and Her Legacies” project, will focus on the politics of race and representation in historical American art, inspired by Phillis Wheatley’s famous portrait and strategies of self-presentation in 1773. Led by Jeffrey Richmond-Moll, Curator of American art at the museum, the tour surveys works from the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century on view in the exhibition “Object Lessons in American: Selections from the Princeton University art Museum.” Upon arrival, guests should check in at the welcome desk in the museum lobby, where the tour will begin. Parking is available in the museum garage (90 Carlton Street) or the nearby Performing Arts Center parking deck.
