For Women's History Month, this special program focuses on Lee
Krasner, Elaine DeKooning, and other women who pioneered abstract art.
During this virtual tour, discover creative ways Krasner and her husband
Jackson Pollock expressed their feelings with paint. Discuss the art displayed
in their home, and explore the barn studio filled with paint splatters --
evidence of their masterpieces. Then, inspired by Lee Krasner's technique,
work alongside Joyce as she demonstrates how you can create bold abstract
art by ripping up your painting, pasting the pieces, and painting back into it to
create a new composition.

“The Island of Sea Women,” is set on a Korean island and draws on the centuries-long history of the the haenyeo, female divers who have effectively created a matrifocal society — they are the breadwinners of their families, while their husbands take on the domestic duties of cooking the meals and raising the children. The novel follows two of the divers, whose intense childhood friendship will be tested through marriage, child-bearing and war. It explores complex themes of loss and forgiveness, and the impact of war on women and children.
Lisa See is the New York Times bestselling author of The Island of Sea Women, The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, Peony in Love, Shanghai Girls, China Dolls, and Dreams of Joy, which debuted at #1. She is also the author of On Gold Mountain, which tells the story of her Chinese American family’s settlement in Los Angeles.
This talk explores the French Impressionist whose art often focused on modern young women and children—Berthe Marie Pauline Morisot (1841-1895), who captured her world in a vibrant, changing style. We’ll follow her life’s arc and learn that she and Édouard Manet enjoyed each other’s company so much—he also enjoyed her looks—that Berthe became his favorite model. He seems to have urged her to marry his adoring brother, Eugène, who then devoted his life to furthering Morisot's career, making the pair a fixture in late-19th-century Parisian culture. Local museums, such as the Newark Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will help tell her story in art.

Christine Coulson worked at the Met for over two decades. She knows the institution inside out, especially inside, with its hallways and offices, conservation studios, storerooms, and a cafeteria that are home to the museum’s devoted and peculiar staff of 2,200 people—along with a few ghosts.
Written by a true museum insider through the lens of humor and magical realism, Metropolitan Stories is a surreal love letter to the Met. An ode to lives lived for art, it unfolds in a series of vignettes in which an unexpected cast of characters (including a few statues, Muses, and paintings) springs to life behind the closed doors of the museum.
Christine Coulson began her career at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1991 as a summer intern in the European Paintings Department. She returned in 1994 and, over the next 25 years, rose through the ranks of the Museum, working in the Development Office, the Director’s Office, and the Department of European Sculpture and Decorative Arts. In 2019 she left the Met to write full-time.
This event concludes our Museum Month series. To know more about the Museum and the art in the book, take our Virtual Tour of the Metropolitan Museum on March 22, or check the author’s website: https://www.christinecoulson.com/art
