The Menil Collection presents Charles Ray – Thoughts on Sculpture.
Artist Charles Ray delivers the first in a series of lectures, Thoughts on Sculpture, at the Menil.
Ray will consider such themes as subject matter as a formal element; sculpture with holes; and bronze and the work of Rodin, Degas, and Matisse. The talks offer a rare opportunity to hear from a contemporary artist who himself has made significant and innovative contributions to the field.
Nineteen of Ray’s sculptures are on view at the Art Institute of Chicago in Charles Ray: Sculpture 1997-2014, co-organized with Kunstmuseum Basel.
Two additional lectures will occur in the spring.
