Gallery Talk: Works on Paper by Lee Bontecou and Eva Hesse

This event does not require registration; see further details below.

Join curatorial fellow Madeline Murphy Turner for a deep dive into Lee Bontecou’s and Eva Hesse’s drawings and prints of the 1960s. Through close looking, Turner will share how each artist expresses the relationship between void and matter and how their work creates the sense of three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface.

This gallery talk is part of our New on View series, highlighting recent gallery installations and presenting new insights into recent acquisitions or old favorites.

Led by:
Madeline Murphy Turner, Emily Rauh Pulitzer Curatorial Fellow in Contemporary Drawings, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art
