Presented in conjunction with "View From Here"—an exhibition of recently acquired artworks that represent a range of generational and global perspectives—this series of intimate conversations between artists and LACMA curators and educators will explore how these artworks function historically in an encyclopedic collection, and how they provide us with a window into the challenges and joys of art making. The first in the series will feature Rita Gonzalez, Terri and Michael Smooke Curator and Department Head, Contemporary Art and Felipe Baeza, artist.
Baeza was born in 1987 in Guanajuato, Mexico and lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. He received a BFA from The Cooper Union in 2009 and an MFA from Yale University in 2018.
This conversation took place over Zoom on September 3, 2020.
