Curated by Luca Massimo Barbero, Associate Curator of the
Peggy Guggenheim Collection, this exhibition presents two rare
series of Fontana’s works created in the early 1960s and never
before shown together in a presentation of such scope.
Organized thematically, this exhibition presents the continuities in
Spanish approaches to history, religion, mythology, and everyday life,
through works by the key painters of the last five centuries: El Greco,
Diego Velázquez, Francisco de Goya, Pablo Picasso, and others.
Pollock’s first solo show, at Peggy Guggenheim’s Art of This
Century gallery in 1943, publicized a “Young Man from
Wyoming.” Brigid Hughes, founder and editor of the literary
magazine A Public Space, and Annie Proulx, Pulitzer
Prize–winning author of The Shipping News and “Brokeback
Mountain,” discuss the West as regional and cultural space.
Pritzker Prize–winning architect Zaha Hadid discusses her work.
This concert program features pieces influenced and inspired by
Fontana, including compositions by John Cage, Claudio Lugo
(inspired by Goffredo Petrassi), Bruno Maderna, Luigi Nono, and
Nicola Sani, performed by guitarist Marco Cappelli, pianist Ciro
Longobardi, saxophonist Claudio Lugo, flautist Tommaso Rossi,
and narrator Enzo Salonone.
This concert is sponsored by Regione Campania and Regione del
Veneto. Hotel accomodations provided by the Jolly Hotel Madison
Towers. The museum graciously thanks the Italian Cultural Institute
for their assistance. $24 ($20 members and seniors, $15 students).

Annual Hilla Rebay Lecture: Stephen Eisenman
The Abu Ghraib Effect:
Images of Pathos from
Pergamon to Picasso
TUE OCT 3 @ 6:30 PM
From the ancient Pergamon Altar to the photographs of torture at
Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, images of conquered figures
embracing their own deaths pervade visual culture. However, there
also exists a tradition in modern art—including works by Pablo
Picasso, Ben Shahn, Leon Golub, Gillo Pontecorvo, and others—
that subverts this oppressive paradigm. This lecture addresses the
nature of the opposition, and the political stakes for those involved.
This program is free, and tickets are available on the day of the
lecture on a first-come, first-served basis. This annual program is
made possible through the generosity of the Hilla von Rebay
Foundation.

Connoisseurship

Now in its fourth season, this high-profile series turns to artists for
an examination of creativity and judgment. Sharing personal views
of what makes a work good, better, or best, Laurie Anderson,
Jeff Koons, and Hiroshi Sugimoto discuss how they judge works of
art, their own process from sketch to finished piece, and how they
choose which of their own works to keep for their personal
collections.

BOX OFFICE INFORMATION
(212) 423-3587
MON–FRI,
1–5 PM
Tickets may be purchased at the door as space allows. If purchased two weeks
prior to an event, tickets are mailed; otherwise they are held at the Box Office.
If an event is sold out, stand-by numbers are distributed one half-hour before
lectures and one hour before Works & Process performances on a first-come, firstserved basis. After an event begins, those with stand-by numbers are admitted as
space permits. The Box Office closes 20 minutes after each event begins; we regret
that late arrivals cannot be admitted after this time.
Order SERIES SUBSCRIPTIONS now for best event selection. There is a $2-per-ticket
handling fee for all nonsubscription ticket sales.

SINGLE-EVENT TICKETS
for Works & Process are not sold until one month prior to the
event and are filled after subscription orders. You can order single-event tickets by
calling the Box Office.
Ticket reservations and program registration are final only when accompanied by
full payment. There are no refunds or exchanges.
The museum reserves the right to cancel events, and all programs are subject to
change. In the case of a cancelled event, a ticket to an alternate event or a full
refund will be issued.
