 _Vik_Muniz_Shapiro_Celebrity_Lecture\nEvent Date Begin: 2009-04-16\nEvent 
 Date End: 2009-04-16\n\nVik Muniz uses unconventional materials to recreat
 e well-known works of art or images from popular culture-rendering Caravag
 gio's Medusa in spaghetti\, a Warhol-like Double Mona Lisa in peanut butte
 r and jelly-then photographs these creations as what he calls 'photographi
 c delusions.' He made drawings based on photographs of the Whitney Museum'
 s galleries with dust collected by the Whitney's maintenance staff\; redre
 w photographs of the children of sugar plantation workers in sugar on blac
 k paper. To quote New York Times critic Vicki Goldberg\, 'Vik Muniz's work
  tells us that seeing is not quite believing\, that perceiving and underst
 anding are balancing acts\, that experience itself is a see-saw. . .' In D
 ecember 2008\, The Museum of Modern Art opens 'Artist's Choice: Vik Muniz\
 ,' curated by the artist from MoMAs collections. As witty in person as in 
 his art\, Muniz discusses his process and the philosophy that lies behind 
 works that have been described as 'an idea wrapped up in surprise and laug
 hter.'\n\nStart time: 6:30 - 8pm
