The artist speaks: SFMOMA murals of Monticello and Mount Vernon
October 1, 2009
Posted in: Jefferson Today, Monticello, the House
In February, we discussed recently unveiled murals of Monticello and Mount Vernon by artist Kerry Marshall in the atrium of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. In this video, Marshall discusses the murals and his use of games and puzzles to point out the hidden aspects and challenges inherent in interpreting the founders today.

- Visit the SFMOMA site about the murals, along with accompanying multimedia.
