3 in 30 | Contemporary Connections

Where an artwork is displayed in a museum can reveal important context and new perspectives. In this talk, explore three contemporary works that were made by living artists—but are exhibited outside the 21st century gallery. Examine why these works are placed in these settings and uncover cross-cultural connections that can illuminate the contemporary artist’s motivations.

VMFA’s “3 in 30” programs are offered on the first Tuesday (in-person) and Thursday (virtually) of every month. Curators and educators discuss works in the permanent collection and in special exhibitions, considering different themes found across the collection, artistic movements, or a single artist’s body of work.
“3 in 30 PLUS” is an expanded version of this program where two speakers come together to present a program that is one-hour long.
“3 in 30” programs are free and open to the public.
