Singing in Unison, Part 13: Homage to Meyer Schapiro

Meyer Schapiro (1904-1996) trained as a scholar of Romanesque and Early Christian art, publishing seminal articles on subjects ranging from the ancient world to twentieth-century art. His writings on iconography, theory, and the semiotics of visual art were especially influential, and his interests included film, photography, psychology, sociology, and social criticism, as well as various kinds of visual art.

Singing in Unison, Part 13 features a selection of works by Schapiro alongside works by artists with whom he shared relationships at various times throughout his long and productive life.
