Join us to celebrate Black History Month with an art talk by Jane Oneail of Culturally Curious. Register HERE. 

Kehinde Wiley’s portrait of President Obama cemented his status in the contemporary art world as an artist that mixes Grand Manner portraiture traditions, intricate patterns and designs, and a vibrant, technicolor palette. His paintings, which most often depict contemporary African American subjects, examine visual codes for power and challenge expectations. This program explores the artist’s life and provides an overview of his works and inspiration.

Jane Oneail curates and delivers art appreciation programs to audiences throughout New England. Jane holds Master’s degrees in Art History from Boston University and in Education from Harvard University. Jane has also taught at the college level for more than a decade, most recently at Southern New Hampshire University.

This program is a collaboration with the Maynard Public Library and sponsored by the Friends of the Lincoln Library.
