A Masterpiece Disappeared: The birth and death of Herbert Bayer’s ‘Walk in Space Painting’
About this Event

Based on his investigation published in January by the Hollywood Reporter, Andrew Travers will share the fascinating and awful story of Herbert Bayer’s “Walk in Space Painting.” The monumental California sculpture, completed in 1981, was the culmination of decades of Bayer work in environmental sculpture and “walk-through” concepts. It disappeared in 2024, apparently destroyed by its current owner. This talk and tour will bring participants up to date on this unsolved mystery and share related artwork on display in the current Bayer Center exhibition Sculpting the Environment: The Three-Dimensional Art of Herbert Bayer.
