      Join us for a journey across time, medium and identity with Jeffrey Richmond-Moll, the George Putnam Curator of American Art. Richmond-Moll served as PEM's coordinating curator for Making History: 200 Years of American Art from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, which features 85 paintings and sculptures by both well-known and undersung artists in PAFA's formidable collection. Discover how making art is a process that can help us make sense of our history and learn how various artists have played a key role in sharing and reframing America's past, present and future.

      Jeffrey Richmond-Moll joined PEM in 2023 and now oversees an expansive collection that encompasses over four centuries of American art, culture and creative expression. Most recently serving as curator of American art at the Georgia Museum of Art, on the campus of the University of Georgia, Richmond-Moll has a wide range of expertise in American art from the colonial era to the late 20th century. He pursues interdisciplinary, experimental curatorial strategies to tell compelling, inclusive stories about our nation’s past, present and future. His highly collaborative practice seeks to forge connections across media and time periods and unlock new ideas about American art and identity. Richmond-Moll received his Ph.D. and M.A. in art history from the University of Delaware and a B.A. in art and archaeology from Princeton University. He is the former co-chair of the Association of Historians of American Art.
