Their salon at 27 Rue de Fleurus was the incubator of a thousand intellectual developments. They hosted the likes of Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Juan Gris, Ernest Hemingway, Archibald MacLeish, and Thornton Wilder. They were the parents of modernism, and their relationship so close that Stein wrote Toklas’ autobiography. This lecture will examine their life, love, and work.
