To deepen appreciation for the exhibition Dana Barnes: Untamed Gestures, visitors are invited to join senior curator Barbara Paris Gifford for an intimate conversation in the gallery with artists and collaborators Dana Barnes and Christopher Kurtz. The discussion will focus on the artists’ 2024 Between Us: Tête-à-Tête. This suspended two-seater chaise, carved by Kurtz from basswood, is enveloped by Barnes’ hand-twisted woollen vines, melding the artists’ distinct sensibilities in form and material. Balancing strength and delicacy, Between Us: Tête-à-Tête evokes both resilience and tenderness. The discussion will range from the work’s conceptual development and craftsmanship to the converging of the artists’ practices for their first collaboration. Visitors also will have the opportunity to investigate textile materials and watch a demonstration of the artists’ process.
Space is limited. Seating will be provided. Advance registration is required.
