The Newark Museum celebrates Bearden’s 100th birthday with an exhibit of his collages and paintings. Featured are “approximately 80 works of art that span the career of this internationally renowned artist. The exhibition underscores not only Bearden’s artistic mastery, particularly in the technique of collage, but also his development of narrative and thematic explorations of his native South. “
