Four paintings on display in Re-View offer a fascinating glimpse of the range of styles, painting methods, and types of patronage that characterized American art between the 1920s and 1950s: Georgia O'Keeffe's Red and Pink (1925), Charles Sheeler's Upper Deck (1929), Jackson Pollock's No. 2 (1950), and Jacob Lawrence's Ventriloquist (1952).

Free admission (admission is free for everyone on Saturdays before noon).
Gallery talks are informal and include discussion.
