In this session, we’ll journey through the sweeping landscapes and vivid stories of Western American art. We’ll explore the majestic scenes of Edgar Payne, the iconic cowboy and Native American imagery of Charles Russell, and the imaginative works of Uruguayan-American painter Joseph Mora—whose art famously appears on The Byrds’ Sweetheart of the Rodeo album cover (1969). We’ll also look at Maynard Dixon, Paul Sample, and other key artists who captured the rugged beauty and spirit of the West. Later in the spring, we’ll turn our attention to influential 20th-century Black American painters, including Richard Mayhew’s colorful semi-abstract landscapes, Ernie Barnes’s dynamic storytelling canvases, and the powerful, thought-provoking work of contemporary artist Kerry James Marshall.
