LOOKING AT LUNCHTIME: A PERSONAL LOOK AT A CLARK FAVORITE

For Immediate Release

March 07, 2013

Williamstown, MA—On Thursday, March 14 at 12:30 pm, the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute invites visitors to spend a half hour with Curatorial Research Assistant Alexis Goodin for a discussion about Vincent van Gogh’s Terrace in the Luxembourg Gardens, on view in the Clark Remix gallery.

Looking at Lunchtime is a free event held on the second Thursday of each month. Members of the Clark's staff select a few of their favorite works in the collection to discuss with visitors to the museum.

Clark Remix features more than 80 paintings, nearly 20 sculptures, and more than 300 decorative arts objects from the Clark's permanent collection. The exhibition is both a physical reality and a virtual space, featuring a dynamic salon-style installation and two new digital applications that offer exciting ways to engage with the collection.
