Art Talk Live: The Abject Object—Decay and Irreverence in Dieter Roth’s Multiples

12:30pm to 1:00pm

Location: 

Online

Known for his iconoclastic use of nontraditional artistic materials, ranging from chocolate to playing cards to animal excrement, artist Dieter Roth (1930–1998) underscored processes of decomposition in his work. Curatorial fellow Lauren Hanson considers how Roth’s “decay objects” from the 1960s and ’70s harness self-deprecating humor to challenge notions of originality, artistic genius, and the museum as a site of preservation.

Lauren Hanson, Stefan Engelhorn Curatorial Fellow in the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art...

Art Talk Live: Feeling Funny—Picasso in 1918

2:00pm to 2:30pm

Location:

Led by:
Joachim Homann, Maida and George Abrams Curator of Drawings, Division of European and American Art
