Curator's Talk: Art/Object

Virtually join graduate student curator, Jennie Waldow, to discuss her online exhibition, Art/Object: Contemporary Works between Mediums. You will receive a Zoom Link for the event after registering on Eventbrite here.

We often categorize objects in an effort to make sense of them, but what if we aren't able to? Our online exhibition, Art/Object: Contemporary Works between Mediums, considers this question through works in the collections of the Cantor and Bowes Library that fall between the cracks of obvious medium categories. In this virtual presentation, graduate student curator Jennie Waldow will discuss how the editions, documents, posters, and invitations in the exhibition point to the way an artist’s practice often flows across media, with ideas or visual motifs explored through preparatory, experimental, and everyday formats.

If you need a disability-related accommodation like live captioning, please contact cantor_education@stanford.edu. Requests should be made at least one week in advance of the event date.
