About this Event

Join The Art League Book Club as we dive into The Work of Art, a fascinating collection from former New York magazine editor Adam Moss. In this guided journey inside the artist’s mind, Moss explores how transcendent novels, paintings, songs, films, and performances come to life. Through interviews with some of today’s most accomplished creators like Kara Walker, Tony Kushner, Sofia Coppola, Stephen Sondheim, and many others—woven together with journal entries, sketches, and doodles—he reveals the winding paths, false starts, breakthroughs, and decisions that ultimately lead to great art.

Whether you’re an artist, an art lover, or just curious about the creative process, this month’s pick offers rare insight into the struggles and triumphs that fuel artistic vision. Come ready to share your thoughts and connect with fellow readers!
