Lecture | Anni Albers: Experiments (CANCELED)

Join Fritz Horstman, Exhibition Curator and Education Director of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, and Karis Medina, Associate Curator of the Anni Albers Foundation, for a collaborative lecture examining the theory and practice of Anni Albers. Together, they will focus on the large body of work produced by Albers during the 44 years she lived in Connecticut; paying particular attention to the artist's use of textiles, prints, and drawings to reveal an understanding of each material and its physical and structural potential. This event will begin with a wine and cheese reception at 5:30 p.m.; the lecture will follow at 6 p.m.
