About this Event
Join us for a special tour of Embodied Conversations: The Lillian and Billy Mauer Collection with Vancouver-based photographer and film/video artist Gonzalo Reyes Rodriguez. Known for their interest in the connections between art and society, the Mauers’ collection offers revealing and timely insights into contemporary photography’s capacity to encompass the complexity of 20th- and 21st-century life. Reyes Rodriguez will focus on artists such as Nan Goldin, Cindy Sherman, Shirin Neshat, Frances Stark and Lorraine O’Grady, among others, whose works engage portraiture, identity, staging, and the politics of representation. Drawing connections between these practices and the broader conceptual strategies in the exhibition, the tour will frame the collection as an ongoing inquiry into how artworks construct subjectivity and shape our understanding of the social world.
This tour is co-presented by Capture Photography Festival and Griffin Art Projects.
