This Thursday we’ll kick off our spring series of Art Off the Wall by celebrating Chitra Ganesh: Eye

This Thursday we’ll kick off our spring series of Art Off the Wall by celebrating Chitra Ganesh: Eyes of Time with an evening of activities inspired by her site-specific installation in the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art.Come by early for a conversation between Ganesh and Saisha Grayson, Assistant Curator, Elizabeth A. Sackler for Feminist Art and catch an exclusive screening of the artist’s video work. Browse a pop-up zine library curated by Brooklyn Zine Fest, inspired by Ganesh’s Tales of Amnesia (2002). Stay late for a Bhangra dance workshop with Ajna Dance Company and a dance party hosted by DJ Rekha.Ganesh’s work explores mythic representations of femininity, sexuality, and power through a variety of media from watercolors and drawings to films, photographs and text-based work. Her site-specific work at the museum draws from historical and mythic tales that reveal the fierce Kali, one of the figures honored with a place setting in Judy Chicago’s The Dinner Party (on permanent view in the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art), as one of the many avatars of feminine divinity.The evening is free with $16 Museum (suggested) admission, free for members. There will be a cash bar with small bites and galleries are open until 10 p.m.!  For the full lineup and to RSVP, check us out on Facebook here.Posted by Lauren Zelaya -- source link
