The Huntington is organizing an exhibition of Sargent Claude Johnson, pioneering Bay Area modernist of the Harlem Renaissance era. It will bring together 41 works, spanning sculptures, masks, enamel paintings, and a teapot. The Huntington’s 22-ft.-wide redwood Organ Screen from the California School for the Blind, Berkeley, will be reunited with other works from that c. 1933 commission.
“Sargent Claude Johnson” will appear in the Boone Gallery Feb. 17 to May 20, 2024, and will be accompanied by a catalog.
