Join us for the September meeting of SFMOMA’s Works on Paper Book Club with this month’s moderator, Thomas Weisel Family Chief Curator Janet Bishop, who has selected the newly published biography Gertrude Stein: An Afterlife by Francesca Wade.
Bishop will open with a short talk on the book and its connections to Matisse’s Femme au chapeau: A Modern Scandal — currently on view on Floor 4 — before leading the group through a discussion guided by her own questions.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m for informal discussion amongst book club members.
We encourage everyone to read as much of the book as they can, but don’t let an unfinished last chapter stop you from joining us! Come ready to discuss — just know that all plot points are fair game.
Please note that space is limited and advance registration is required. RSVP here.
Gertrude Stein: An Afterlife by Francesca Wade is available for purchase in the Museum Store or for checkout at your local library.
