German artist Rebecca Horn worked in a wide range of media from the 1960s until her recent death in 2024. Join curator Lynette Roth to examine the artist’s meditations on the body in the photographs, films, and objects currently on view in the galleries and see how they are in dialogue with her major installation Flying Books under Black Rain Painting, at the museums’ Prescott Street entrance.
This gallery talk is part of our New on View series, highlighting recent gallery installations and presenting new insights into recent acquisitions or old favorites.
Led by:
Lynette Roth, Daimler Curator of the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art
Please check in with museum staff at the Visitor Services desk in the Calderwood Courtyard to request to join the gallery talk. Space is limited, and talks are available on a first-come, first-served basis; no registration is required.
