The talk will offer insight into her creative legacy and the process of bringing these worlds into public view. Cost: $25 $20 for Farnsworth members About the Curators William L. Coleman, Ph.D. is Director of the Wyeth Study Center and Wyeth Foundation Curator, dividing responsibilities between the Farnsworth and the Brandywine Museum of Art in Chadds Ford, PA. He writes and teaches on the art of the United States, with a particular research focus on the history of landscape painting. Coleman was previously Director of Collections & Exhibitions at The Olana Partnership, Associate Curator of American Art at the Newark Museum of Art, and held long-term fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Smithsonian Institution. He is the author of Andrew Wyeth: The Masterworks, coming in late 2026, and editor of Rockwell Kent: The Work of Art, coming in spring 2027, both from Rizzoli Electa.
