Focus VI – Sam Gilliam Prints from the Collection

Focus VI – Sam: Sam Gilliam in the Lafayette College Art Collection

Sam Gilliam, one of the most innovative American abstract painters, spent time at Lafayette College as an artist-in-residence in 2002. Gilliam’s residency resulted in creating new works with the Experimental Printmaking Institute and gifting a spectacular hanging painting for the Lobby of the Williams Center for the Arts. As the Williams Center for the Arts marks its 40 Anniversary, we celebrate the list of stellar artists who have contributed to Lafayette College. This exhibition celebrates both Sam Gilliam’s life and his contributions to Lafayette College.
