Gallery Talk | The Eight and American Modernisms

Join Docent Joan Kennedy for a tour of paintings by The Eight from the NBMAA permanent collection. These eight friends and colleagues drew artistic inspiration from each other; nevertheless, each artist’s style was unique. All eight of them exhibited together only once, in 1908 at the Macbeth Galleries in New York, where they were a sensation. Why? How did they impact the even more sensational 1913 Armory Show only five years later? How did that show impact The Eight? Come find out!
