The Institute of World Politics, Washington DC

The Marlatt Mansion was built in 1908 by Dr. Charles Marlatt, an entomologist with the Department of Agriculture during the presidency of Theodore Roosevelt. Dr. Marlatt had a distinguished career as an insect illustrator, world traveler, author of numerous works on entomological subjects, and President of the Cosmos Club. He designed the decorative wood and plaster carvings of insects, birds, and animals found throughout the main floor of the mansion.

The Marlatt family maintained the building until selling it in 1970. From 1973 to 1975 the Marlatt Mansion was owned by the government of the USSR, which used it to house the Soviet Embassy's Office of the Commercial Counselor, as well as offices of the KGB. During that time it is believed to have served as the temporary residence of Soviet Communist Party General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev. (Information from www.iwp.edu).

The building currently houses The Institute of World Politics, a graduate school of national security and international affairs.

Several of Susan's paintings will be displayed at the Third Annual Watercolor Among Friends exhibit, April 9 and 10, 2011.

Twenty students of local award-winning artist Pat Leibowitz will exhibit their work at Glen Echo’s Yellow Barn Studio and Gallery on Saturday, April 9 from 12:00 noon to 7:00pm, and Sunday, April 10 from 12:00 noon to 5:00pm. There will be an opening reception to meet and talk to the artists from 5:00pm - 7:00pm on Saturday, April 9th.

There is a wide range of painting styles in this 20-artist show, and the pieces range in subject matter from landscapes and seascapes to still lifes and portraits. Each piece will encourage you to look more closely at the world around you and maybe even inspire you to take up watercolor painting as a new interest or hobby.
