The Artist Project: Natalie Frank

Artist Natalie Frank reflects on the work of Käthe Kollwitz 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.

"It was the first time I had seen the world through a grown woman's eyes."

Artist Natalie Frank reflects on the work of Käthe Kollwitz in this episode of The Artist Project—an online series in which artists respond to works of art in The Met collection.
