Art, Cocktails, and Conversation with Curators and Directors of the Harvard Art Museum.
We’ll learn about the museum renovation designed by internationally acclaimed architect Renzo Piano, and the ways in which the renovated museum will enable its distinguished collections to be accessed more roadly, and utilized in new and innovative ways, by the Harvard and public communities it serves.
Of special interest is the Fellows program: the Harvard Art Museum is engaging alumni in Boston, New York, and London through regular curator-led visits to public and private art exhibitions in these cities. Paris could be next!
As a highlight of the evening, Deborah Martin Kao, Richard L. Menschel Curator of Photography at the Fogg, will present a short talk entitled Snap Judgments: Positioning Photography at the Harvard Art Museum, in which she will reflect on the innovative ways that her department, since its inception, has engaged with contemporary artists, and the impact on the evolution of the Fogg’s extraordinary photography collection.
