Art @ Noon Tours Thursdays July 18 & August 15
La Vera Pohl was a Milwaukee art historian, artist, and collector who studied in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s. She collected around 220 prints, paintings, and drawings by early 20th-century German artists at a time when most Americans were unaware of modern German art. This exhibition will feature highlights from Lawrence University’s Pohl Collection of German Expressionism as well as some of Pohl’s own paintings and papers.
The Wriston Summer Exhibitions are an annual series in the Wriston Art Galleries intended to engage the Fox Valley community in a conversation about artworks and artists of the Midwest.
