Tuesday Evenings at the Modern: Dr. Mark Thistlethwaite


Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth

Dr. Mark Thistlethwaite is no stranger to Tuesday Evenings at the Modern. His first participation in Tuesday Evenings was in March 1993 ,and since those early days of the Modern’s long-running program, Thistlethwaite has lectured no fewer than seven times on a variety of art topics that always inform and entertain. In addition, Thistlethwaite has been a faithful liaison between the Modern and Texas Christian University, conducting classes on site and frequently bringing students to the galleries to engage directly with the art.
For this special presentation, “(Not necessarily) The Last Lecture,” Thistlethwaite, who is retiring after teaching art history at TCU for 43 years, shares his thoughts on four works of art -- one each from the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, Kimbell Art Museum, Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, and Sid Richardson Museum -- that he finds to be full of wonder and resonance.
