Mint Museum Uptown
Members enjoy a tour of Ever Present: Romare Bearden and Music, led by Mint Museum docents. This selection of Bearden’s work is drawn from The Mint Museum’s holdings, highlighting the many ways Bearden explored musical subjects. From his earliest paintings, such as Folk Musicians (1942, Myron Kunin Collection of American Art), to some of his final works, like the Jazz series of prints of the early 1980s; a massive mosaic of jazz musicians he created in Baltimore in 1983, titled Baltimore Uproar; and his 1986 collage Guitar Magic, music was a recurring theme in Romare Bearden’s art throughout his career.
Join us on December 14th at Mint Uptown at 2:00 PM!
