The Menil Collection presents a Thomas J. Lax Lecture.
Thomas J. Lax, an associate curator in the Museum of Modern Art’s Department of Media and Performance Art, New York, received the seventh Walter Hopps Award for Curatorial Achievement.
The biennial award, named for the museum’s Founding Director and selected by a distinguished jury, recognizes outstanding curators in early to mid career and carries a stipend.
The choice of Lax underscores the integral role of performance in the contemporary art world.
