CONTEMPORARY CONVERSATIONS
The museum's Contemporary Conversations program provides a unique opportunity to engage
in a dialogue about the current exhibitions with the artists and the curators. The discussions take a variety of forms—a gallery talk, a panel discussion, a moderated conversation, or even a presentation and are free and open to the public. Look for Contemporary Conversations during the day every Saturday after an Opening of a new show, as well as in the evening throughout
the year.
Contemporary Conversations:
Artist Talk
Saturday, September 11
1:00 pm, Free admission
One of the best aspects of contemporary art is the opportunity to hear the artists talk about their own work. Join Richard Artschwager and Elad Lassry, along with the exhibition curators Laura Fried and Anthony Huberman, in a conversation about the new exhibitions.
