Lecture: The Art of Dahlov Ipcar: Contexts and Connections

Donna Cassidy, Ph.D., Professor of Art and American & England Studies Emerita, University of Southern Maine, will discuss the range of styles used by Dahlov Ipcar in her art. Critics have often claimed that her work remains outside art movements of the day. Instead, Cassidy will argue that Ipcar’s creative activity emerged from specific contexts including the art of her parents Marguerite and William Zorach, historical and contemporary art culture and traditions in Maine art colonies, and women’s art.
