Join us in January for a second tour of the exhibition Going Dark: The Contemporary Figure at the Edge of Visibility. Prior attendance at the program is not necessary to enjoy this second exploration of the exhibition.
This exhibition highlights a multigenerational group of artists who engage the “semi-visible” figure—representations that are partially obscured, including, in some cases, literally darkened. Using the concept of “going dark,” these artists reflect on enduring and urgent questions surrounding social visibility. Visitors encounter in the show a variety of mediums, including painting, sculpture, photography, video, and installation. Join us in exploring and interpreting the semi-visible figure during both in-person and virtual sessions.
January Mind’s Eye programming will be led by artist and educator Rukhshan Haque through verbal description and conversation. The virtual session will be accessible by web link or by dial-in phone number, depending on your preference.
The same program is offered twice virtually and twice in-person, please only RSVP for one session.
