The Artist Project: Joan Snyder

Artist Joan Snyder reflects on Florine Stettheimer's Cathedrals paintings in this episode of The Artist Project.
From March 2015 to June 2016, we invited 120 artists—local, national, and global—to choose individual works of art or galleries that sparked their imaginations. In this online series, artists reflect on what art is, what inspires them from across 5,000 years of art, and in so doing, they reveal the power of a museum and The Met.

"She had almost a cinematic sensibility. She wanted to tell the whole story."

Artist Joan Snyder reflects on Florine Stettheimer's "Cathedrals" paintings in this episode of The Artist Project—an online series in which artists respond to works of art in The Met collection.
