New Bedford Whaling Museum Did you enjoy the first lecture in the Old Dartmouth Lyceum lecture series? The second in the series, "Sea of Ice: The Art of Arctic Exploration" by Kevin Avery is Thursday, October 3rd. Mr. Avery is a senior research scholar and a former associate curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and an adjunct professor in the art department of Hunter College, City University of New York. He will review the history of Arctic exploration in painting and illustration, with special reference to nineteenth-century artists and illustrators leading up to Frederic Church and New Bedford’s William Bradford. Dr. Avery will reveal known or probable sources in the history of western imagery applied to the visualization of the alien landscape that was and, to most, still is the Arctic regions.
