Jacob Lawrence: Over the Line

Surveys Lawrence's life and his long and fascinating career, with emphasis on his student years and development as an artist. Through Lawrence’s paintings and archival photographs, users can follow his progress from his breakthrough exhibition into the segregated art world of New York through the decades beyond. Teaching resources include activities and questions keyed to various curriculum areas. A separate section contains collages made in a model project by students in Washington, D.C., elementary schools.
