Artists and Curator Talk

Join the artists Kira Nam Greene, Emilio Perez and Amy Pryor in Wave Hill’s summer exhibition Nature Pops! for this conversation with Gabriel de Guzman, Wave Hill’s Curator of Visual Arts. They will discuss works on view and how contemporary artists are continuing to reevaluate popular culture a half-century after the emergence of Pop art as a groundbreaking response to new norms of consumerism. These artists are recalibrating this movement in contemporary terms, interpreting nature and the environment through a populist lens and making work that is especially relevant in an age of digital overload and environmental crisis. Free with admission to the grounds. https://www.wavehill.org/events/artists-and-curator-talk/ Pictured above: Installation view of Nature Pops! in Glyndor Gallery, showing Emilio Perez’s prints from Space Face series, 2014, Glyndor Gallery, Wave Hill.
