Event Description

Join a lively discussion celebrating the opening of Andrea Bowers’s mid-career survey at the MCA. Bowers is known for her intimate collaborations with environmental and social justice activists that inspire her artwork. Her research-based practice encourages viewers to visualize the impactful efforts and stories of these advocates for immigration, worker’s rights, environmental justice, and women’s rights. In this conversation, Bowers discusses her work as an artist, how her work has developed through the teachings of other artists and activists, and the questions she asks as she builds work out of these encounters.

The evening will begin with an introduction to the exhibition by curators Connie Butler and Michael Darling, followed by an intimate conversation between Bowers and her close friend, curator Lucía Sanromán, who is also a writer featured in the exhibition catalogue.
