Presented by the Philip & Muriel Berman Museum of Art at Ursinus College. Françoise Gilot (French/American, 1921-2023) holds an important place in the history of modern and contemporary art. One of the most prevailing artists from the post-WWII School of Paris, she led a 70-year career and created over 1,500 paintings and 4,000 works on paper. In these episodes, her curator, archivist, and friend, Mel Yoakum, Ph.D., shares his memories of the late artist.
