Art in Literature | The Mary Lynn Kotz Award Presentation and Reception
Join us for a book talk and celebration of the Art in Literature: The Mary Lynn Kotz Award at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts to honor this year’s recipient, author Sue Prideaux, for her book “Wild Thing: A Life of Paul Gauguin.” The Mary Lynn Kotz Award, sponsored by VMFA and the Library of Virginia, recognizes an outstanding book published in the previous year that is written primarily in response to a work (or works) of art while also showing the highest literary quality as a creative or scholarly work. A book signing and reception will follow the program.
