Gallery Talk: The Legacy of the Zip

Join us for a weekly series of in-depth explorations of select works of art on view in Scenes from the Collection, the museum’s rotating collection exhibition featuring nearly 600 works from antiquities to contemporary art — many of which are on view for the first time.

What happens when painting is pared down to its most formal elements? How do artists infuse those formal motifs with new content in later generations? Jenna Weiss, Manager of Public Programs, explores the legacy of Barnett Newman’s ‘zip’ in works by Ross Bleckner and beyond.

RSVP Recommended.
