A Universe of Art at TEFAF Online

This is my experience viewing TEFAF Online. This art fair has a little bit of everything, as well as the unique twist of only showing one object per gallery.

A New Graphic Novel Introduces Edmonia Lewis

September 13, 2020October 12, 2020 A Scholarly SkaterLeave a comment

As a big fan of 19th-century African-American and Native-American sculptor Edmonia Lewis, I was excited to find out that she's now the subject of a new graphic novel, Seen: Edmonia Lewis. Thanks to publisher BOOM! Studios, I was able to read and review an advanced digital copy ahead of its September 2020 release.

A Review of the Newark Museum

June 1, 2018June 2, 2022 A Scholarly SkaterLeave a comment

The Newark Museum in Newark, New Jersey is possibly the most under-rated museum ever. It has a fabulous collection and is just a short train ride from Manhattan, but people almost never talk about it. I think this is really unfortunate.

A Review of the Montclair Art Museum

The Montclair Art Museum (MAM) is a small museum focused on American art. It has a lovely atmosphere, and I visit at least once a year. Learn why I enjoy it in and what I saw on my most recent visit.
