HYBRID: The Oxbow since Thomas Cole: Two Crossings and a Community
HYBRID: The Oxbow since Thomas Cole: Two Crossings and a Community
Jonathan Moldover, author of The Oxbow Since Thomas Cole: The Story of a Landscape, a Painting, and a Community, will talk about the community which has developed on the Oxbow since the late nineteenth century, accompanied by video clips from the oral history project which was the basis of the book. He will talk about how nature as well as political and business interests have changed the island, and the remarkable resilience of the Oxbow community. He will also explain why the island crossed the river and why the highway crossed the island.
Live in the Coolidge Museum and on the Forbes Library YouTube channel.
