Hidden in Plain Site: Beverly Buchanan

Thursday, October 27, 2016

7 pm

Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Auditorium, 3rd Floor

Beverly Buchanan’s work explored the relationship between place and memory, in dialogue with feminism and art movements like Land Art and Post-Minimalism. Nevertheless, Buchanan has largely been excluded from the history of art of the 1960s and 1970s. Curator Lowery Stokes Sims reflects on her early relationship with the artist, in conversation with a younger generation that has been inspired by Buchanan’s work. Participants include critic Andy Campbell and artist and curator Park McArthur. Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Beverly Buchanan—Ruins and Rituals.

Free as part of Thursday Nights hosted by Squarespace.
