Explore what it means for art to be “untouched” through close looking at three works that arguably lack the physical touch of the artist’s hand: the woodblock print "A Cloudy Day in Mizuki, Ibaraki Prefecture" (1946) by Kawase Wasui, the stained glass window "Woman with Animals" (c. 1912) by expressionist artist Max Pechstein, and a 1967 photograph of the Beatles [John] by Richard Avedon from the Schneider/Erdman Printer’s Proof Collection.
