SUMMARY:Avery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea – Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Cape Ann Museum’s Avery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea Symposium spanning two days. \nThursday\, September 17\, 5:30 p.m.\nKyrouz Auditorium\nGloucester City Hall\n9 Dale Avenue\, Gloucester\, MA 01930 \nFriday\, September 18\, 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.\nDowntown Campus Auditorium\n27 Pleasant Street\, Gloucester\, MA 01930\nCAM Members $95\, Non-Members $135\, Students with ID $75\nRegistration Required \nTickets to individual days or lectures are not available.\nRegistration includes access to the special exhibition Avery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea on Friday\, September 18 from 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. \n─────── \nOpening Day\nThursday\, September 17\, 2026\n5:30 p.m. \nAvery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea – Keynote Speaker\nCrosscurrents\, Riptides\, and Eddies: Thinking about Influence at the Seashore\nby Harry Cooper \nOver the course of several summers spent together in Gloucester and environs\, Mark Rothko and Adolph Gottlieb emerged from the shadow of their great friend and mentor\, Milton Avery\, to come into their own. This lecture explores the exhibition through the lens of influence\, considering exchanges not only between our three protagonists but also with other figures haunting the beach\, from Sophocles and T.S. Eliot to Matisse and more. \n─────── \nFull Day\nFriday\, September 18\, 2026\n10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.\nBagged lunch is included. \nMorning Program\nAtmospheric Geography and Abstraction at Sea\nby James Lawrence \nThe process of detaching abstract forms from their origins in the physical world is seldom as straightforward as commentary and theory might lead us to believe. Adolph Gottlieb’s mature style embodies several tactics that gained traction during the 1930s\, some of which exploited the distinctive traits of coastal and maritime phenomena. This examination of his technique considers what happens to abstraction when it leaves dry land\, how Gottlieb harnessed its currents\, and how we might assess the results within the development of western painting. \nMilton Avery: A Life of Experimentation\nby Edith Devaney \nThis lecture brings together and examines Avery’s autodidactic nature\, interrogating how this\, along with his lifelong experimentation in composition\, form\, and technique ensured that he not only sustained the position of being a painter of great interest during his career and to this day\, but that it was these very qualities which proved to be so compelling to artists who have followed in his wake. \n  \nAfternoon Program\nMark Rothko — From Cape Ann to Provincetown: The Arc of a Career\nby Dr. Christopher Rothko & Dr. Kate Rothko Prizel \nAn examination of Rothko’s development and output\, looking at the importance of place\, colleagues\, and subject throughout his career. For an artist who reluctantly left the studio\, we will find great works inspired by travel\, companionship\, and time away. \nPanel discussion\nby Eliza Rathbone\, Oliver Barker\, Dr. Kate Rothko Prizel\, Dr. Christopher Rothko\, Sanford Hirsch\, and Sean Cavanaugh \nViewing of the special exhibition Avery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea from 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. \n\nClick to read Symposium Speaker Biographies. \nImage Credit: Milton Avery\, Harbor at Night\, 1932.

SUMMARY:CAM Talk – Exhibition Series: T. S. Eliot Among the Painters\, by Dr. John D. Morgenstern
DESCRIPTION:Due to popular demand we were able to open a select number of seats for this lecture! \nSaturday\, September 19\, 2026\n2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.\nDowntown Campus Auditorium\n27 Pleasant Street\, Gloucester\, MA 01930\nRegistration Required \nThis lecture will be recorded & livestreamed. \nCAM Members $5\, Non-Members (Adult) $30.\nAdditional prices available when registering.\nTickets do not include admission to the special exhibition. \n\nClick here to become a member and save! \nWhile summering together on Cape Ann in the 1930s\, Milton Avery\, Adolph Gottlieb\, and Mark Rothko spent their days painting luminous seascapes and evenings reading aloud the poetry of T. S. Eliot. From his early masterpiece\, “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock\,” to Four Quartets\, Eliot’s poetry returns time and again to the Gloucester seascapes he encountered near his family’s summer home. Put in conversation\, poet and painters reveal Gloucester was more than a shared backdrop—it became a generative landscape where questions of universality\, identity\, and modernism were forged across mediums. \nDr. John D. Morgenstern (DPhil\, Oxford) is a scholar of twentieth-century literature and the arts who has taught in England\, Germany\, and the United States. He is the coeditor of The Edinburgh Companion to T. S. Eliot and the Arts (2016)\, coeditor of Modernism in Wonderland: Legacies of Lewis Carroll (2024)\, and the founding editor of The T. S. Eliot Studies Annual. He now serves as an associate librarian at Emory University. \nImage Credit: Milton Avery\, Gloucester Dawn\, c. 1921. Oil on artist board\, 20 x 24 in.
