In Conversation: Becky Suss, Ann Patchett & Noah Saterstrom Discuss The Dutch House - Cheekwood
x icon Close

Artist Becky Suss will discuss the inspiration behind her exhibition The Dutch House in conjunction with Ann Patchett, author of The Dutch House (Harper Collins, 2019) and Noah Saterstrom, cover artist for The Dutch House novel. Suss’s paintings explore themes of memory, domesticity, and identity and are based on her artistic interpretation of the fictional setting in Patchett’s novel, which was a finalist for the 2020 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.
