Book signing to follow
The Contemporaries’ mission is to educate, enlighten, and inspire with thought-provoking discussions from the fields of science, contemporary culture, media, and the arts. Programming is geared toward younger supporters and parents aged 21 to 49.
Brooklyn Museum Senior Curator Catherine Morris will discuss her work at the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art. She will highlight curatorial methods that aim to change, rather than simply revise, our understanding of history by featuring exhibitions that go beyond adding women artists to the existing art historical canon. She will also address the intersection of curating exhibitions and building collections. Morris has curated exhibitions for acclaimed artists like Elizabeth Catlett, Nona Faustine, Lorraine O’Grady and Judith Scott.
