This exhibition features an exceptional group of 26 works by the 20th-century American master, Jacob Lawrence (1917–2000), and one by his spouse, Gwendolyn Knight (1913–2005), recently given to the Cantor Arts Center by Dr. Herbert J. Kayden and his family in memory of Dr. Gabrielle H. Reem. The gift illuminates Lawrence’s career through 11 drawings, six paintings, nine prints, and one illustrated book, all dating between the years 1943 and 1998.
