Painter Amy Sillman joins us virtually for the last Diversities in Practice talk of 2021 to discuss her work and process over the past few years.
The New York–based Sillman, who was featured in the Wexner Center exhibitions Inherent Structure and Landscape Confection, will share a text about her "principles," a manifesto of sorts illuminating the ideas that give her practice an aesthetic and ethical shape. The text, brief yet expansive, will be narrated alongside a virtual kaleidoscope of images by other artists that speed by as she reads, images simultaneously illustrating and punctuating her text.
More about the series
Diversities in Practice is a collaboration between Ohio State’s Wexner Center for the Arts, Department of Art, and Living Culture Initiative. This series includes talks and moderated discussions featuring a range of artists, thinkers, and practitioners engaged in compelling and critical work, centering projects that examine, shape, and push both material and ideological boundaries. This season we are happy to present Liz Deschenes, Christopher Harris, Amy Sillman, Futura, and other artists. These presentations will be available online throughout 2021–22. Also available online are past talks from Stephanie Syjuco, Tomashi Jackson, Earlonne Woods and Nigel Poor, Jonathan Berger, Torkwase Dyson, and Cauleen Smith.
