IN PERSON: In October, the Nasher Museum of Art will celebrate its 20th anniversary. This course will show how the museum has exhibited a broad range of artistic voices, fostered dialogue and creativity, and served as a laboratory for interdisciplinary teaching and learning. We will explore the presentation of works from the museum’s contemporary collection, including highlights from a gift of iconic photographs, as well as look into the work of multidisciplinary artist Sherman Fleming and an exhibition of Indigenous pop art. We will spend time in the anniversary exhibition, “Everything Now All at Once,” which will highlight groundbreaking works from the contemporary collection. We will delve into several works each week. Sitting comfortably in the galleries, we will have conversations on the context, history, style and impact of the artwork. We will explore connections between works in the galleries, considering how the juxtapositions of works enhance our understanding of each piece. | Facilitated discussion.
Max enrollment: 15.
Location: Nasher Museum of Art, 2001 Campus Drive, Durham NC 27705
