Jewish Museum Archives Roundup: From Man Ray to Mucha

The Jewish Museum in New York is featured in a roundup of artcritical articles covering exhibitions and events. Highlights include a mid-career retrospective titled "Flesh" (through September 16), "Painting as Poetry" (through September 25), and "The Messiah's glAss" (through November 11). Man Ray is described as transgressive and fiercely individualistic. Alphonse Mucha's color lithographs of Sarah Bernhardt are noted, including "Tragique histoire d'Hamlet" (1899), "La Samaritaine" (1897), and "Lorenzaccio" (1896). Upon Bernhardt's death in 1923, a million people lined Paris streets from the Madeleine to Théâtre Sarah Bernhardt to Pere-Lachaise. Upcoming lectures and panels in New York are also mentioned.
