Description:
|
A humble farm woman who taught herself to paint when she was in her 70s, Grandma Moses went on to become the Cinderella of the 20th-century art world. Placing Moses in the context of other "self-taught" or "folk" artists, this introduction to her life and well-loved paintings coincides with the opening of a major exhibition of her work that originated at the National Museum of Women in the Arts.
