    The nature of sculpture—the visual language and materials employed—has changed at a rapid pace over the last 50 years. This talk will examine these developments by looking at David Smith’s Doorway on Wheels (1960), Joseph Beuys’s Back Support for a Fine-Limbed Person (Hare Type) of the 20th Century A.D. (1972), Rosemarie Trockel’s Shutter (c) (2006), and Leonardo Drew’s Number 122 (2007), viewing these changes within the context of each artist’s work and the time of production.

    Free with the price of admission. Open to the public.

    Limited to 25 participants; please arrive early.

    Gallery talks are informal and include discussion.
