Have you ever looked at a work by Sam Francis or Jackson Pollock
and said, “I could paint that”? Join Scott A. Shields, Associate
Director and Chief Curator of the Crocker Art Museum, as he moderates a
discussion on Abstract Expressionism and the misconceptions about the
progressive artists who painted in this style. Panelists will include
the Sam Francis Foundation’s Director and Curator Debra Burchett-Lere,
artist Joan Moment, and renowned art historian and UC Berkeley Professor
Emeritus Peter Selz. Space is limited and reserving tickets in advance
