"Free Champagne"! Upcoming Talk! & New "Private Life"!
Now for something unlikely: Tomorrow, Thursday, May 14th, 11am-2pm—I’ll be hosting a “live talk show event” called “Free Champagne” at the VIP opening of the Independent Art Fair which you can listen to online via the Montez Press Radio website! We’ll wrangle a number of critics, curators and artists visiting the fair to come give their impressions while somewhat irreverently taking the temperature of the “art world.” Special guests are planned—It will be fun.
Then next Tuesday, May 19th, 6pm I’ll be in conversation with Lisa Yuskavage on the occasion of her new show at David Zwirner. Officially it’s called “Color and Other Topics” but I’ve been referring to it as “Everything You Wanted To Know About Color But Were Afraid to Ask Laura Ashley” (Yes, that Laura Ashley will be discussed as a color theorist, in addition to Albers, Itten, and the Renaissance art historian Marsha Hall.)
The talk will be at 519 West 19th Street, NY, NY // RSVP: events@davidzwirner.com
And last but not least, a new episode of Private Life is out today: “Ingrid D. Rowland on Art History, Raphael and Designo” —we talk about drawings in the exhibition “Raphael: Sublime Poetry” currently at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, as well as the writing of Giorgio Vasari, and end with a dash of Caravaggio. She’s fab.
