- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Dive into Beyond Mysticism: The Modern Northwest, the Seattle Art Museum’s exploration of early-20th-century Pacific Northwest modernism. This exhibition reimagines the region’s artistic legacy—expanding beyond the iconic “Mystic” painters to highlight the broad range, complexity, and national significance of Northwest modern art. Featuring over 150 works by artists including Morris Graves, Mark Tobey, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Salvador Dalí, the show reveals how local and transnational forces shaped a vibrant and distinctive artistic moment.

SAM’s Ann M. Barwick Curator of American Art, Theresa Papanikolas, will lead a dynamic discussion on the inspirations, research, and stories behind the exhibition. Hear how these artists engaged with the Pacific Northwest’s landscapes, cultures, and creative currents—and discover new perspectives on how this region helped shape American modernism.

Be sure to join in on the next SAM Talks inspired by Beyond Mysticism: The Modern Northwest on April 9 and June 11.
