Dahesh Museum's 'Academic' Exhibition at New York Studio School and Freedman Art
The Dahesh Museum of Art, located at 580 Madison Avenue at 57th Street in New York, presented an exhibition titled 'Academic' from September 3 to November 2, 2003. The show, held at the New York Studio School and Freedman Art, examined art about its own creation. In the contemporary art world, 'academic' is often associated with inflexibility, reaction, and soulless polish, yet the Dahesh Museum has been exploring this theme since 1995.
