You might know her husband's paintings, but have you ever heard of Elaine de Kooning? Come learn about the works of de Kooning, whose abstract and figurative paintings and drawings exemplify the height of Abstract Expressionism in New York City. Join Brandon Fortune, chief curator of the National Portrait Gallery, as she leads you on a tour through the works of "Elaine de Kooning: Portraits." Following the tour, Fortune will sign copies of the fully illustrated publication that accompanies the show. Meet in "Elaine de Kooning: Portraits," by the west stair tower, second floor.
