Adrian Sudhalter, Art Historian and Research Curator at Merrill C. Berman Collection

The painting career of Carl Grossberg (1894–1940) was bracketed by the two world wars. Trained as an architect, he drew his subject matter from the enormous wealth of new forms in the world of technology, recognizing both its potential and dangers. In this lecture, Adrian Sudhalter will investigate the influence of architecture on Carl Grossberg's paintings.
