Fri. November 6, 2026, 01:00 PM - 03:45 PM - Georgia Museum of Art
How do we reconstruct the history of an artist when the traditional archives are silent? How does the historical narrative come together to engage new audiences and give new insights into the work of artists from previous eras like Edmonia Lewis? In conjunction with the landmark exhibition “Edmonia Lewis: Said in Stone,” the Georgia Museum of Art will present two panel discussions centering on the methodologies used to reconstruct the life and legacy of this artist.
