Last summer the National Gallery of Art mounted an important exhibition on George Bellows, member of the Ashcan School and one of the leading American painters of the early twentieth century (and also a Columbus boy and an alumnus of The Ohio State University). A special tour of the exhibition was arranged for the Summer 2012 class of John Glenn Fellows.
This fall the Bellows exhibition moved to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which means that it is now within the purview of Sanford Schwartz, who writes frequently on the visual arts for The New York Review of Books. Here's a link to Schwartz's review.
The National Gallery, meanwhile, has mounted an exhibit featuring the work of another Buckeye: Roy Lichtenstein. Note to Ohio State alumni: maybe it's time to begin acknowledging that OSU is not just about football anymore. (And never was.)
OHHH. . . ALRIGHT. . .
