Mark Thistlethwaite, the Kay and Velma Kimbell Chair of Art History in the TCU School of Art, is currently presenting a series of free, public talks at the Amon Carter Museum of American Art.

 

They are held from 3 to 4 p.m. Tuesdays in the ACMAA auditorium. Theme of the series is "American Art's Changing Modes and Contexts, 1750-1960."

 

The series is offered in conjunction with a TCU course for undergraduate and graduate students, focusing on works in the ACMAA's collections, as well as a special exhibition of American Art from the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., which will open at the museum in early October.

 

Information about specific lecture topics can be found on the Amon Carter Museum of American Art website, www.cartermuseum.org/.
