Details
Please join us for a afternoon at the Baltimore Museum of Art for:
Amy Sherald: American Sublime traces the evolution of the artist, a defining voice of her generation who transformed American portraiture.
### “American Sublime is a salve. It’s a call to remember our shared humanity and an insistence on being seen.” —Amy Sherald
The exhibition tells the story of Sherald’s vision and practice through 38 paintings created from 2007 to the present—from her early, rarely seen works to her iconic, larger-than-life portraits of Black Americans in everyday moments, many of which were painted in Baltimore and feature Baltimore-based models.
A Baltimore Homecoming
American Sublime in Baltimore is more than an exhibition—it’s an occasion of civic pride and cultural affirmation. Sherald graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art, studying under the famed painter Grace Hartigan, and worked in Baltimore during her formative years.
If you would like to attend, please purchase a ticket here: for Friday April 3rd at 3pm or 3:30pm.
We'll meet outside the museum at 2:45 and do a self-guided tour together.
