This lecture addresses the nature of the opposition, and the political stakes for those involved. This program is free, and tickets are available on the day of the lecture on a first-come, first-served basis. This annual program is made possible through the generosity of the Hilla von Rebay Foundation. (left to right) Pepe Karmel, Matthew Ritchie, “Contemporary Artists on Pollock” panel.
