The exhibition will be centered on Daniel Chester French’s iconic statue of the Minute Man, which has come to symbolize American patriotism. The exhibition will explore notions of liberty, victory, fighting (and dying) for one’s country as depicted in portraits, monuments, and memorials by Daniel Chester French and his colleagues. The exhibition will also include works by contemporary artists who are addressing these same themes and topics today.
