ALL MEMBERS WELCOME!

“The Muralist” by B. A. Shapiro
 If you are interested in reading (listening to books) and having a wonderful discussion about art books, join us via Zoom at 1:00.  Normally the meetings are on Thursday, but this month the October 16th meeting will be on Wednesday.  The book selection is “The Muralist” by B. A. Shapiro. This story takes us in the  it means to be an artist. When Alizée Benoit, an American painter working for the Works Progress Administration (WPA), vanishes in New York City in 1940, no one knows what happened to her. Not her Jewish family living in German-occupied France. Not her artistic patron and political compatriot, Eleanor Roosevelt. Not her close-knit group of friends, including Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock, and Lee Krasner. And, some seventy years later, not her great-niece, Danielle Abrams, who while working at Christie’s auction house uncovers enigmatic paintings hidden behind works by those now-famous Abstract Expressionist artists. Do they hold answers to the questions surrounding her missing aunt?

Here is a review.

Bring names of books to consider.  Books should be about art or artists, fiction or non-fiction.  Also please have a little blurb about the book.  Ahead of the meeting, any books you are considering should be sent to [email protected]
