On the occasion of the unveiling of a new permanent art installation in the Fenway neighborhood, renowned contemporary artist Nicole Eisenman and Reto Thüring, Beal Family Chair, Department of Contemporary Art, will discuss Eisenman’s practice, which is grounded in the figurative tradition and borrows extensively from art history. An adept and restless experimenter, Eisenman makes paintings and sculptures that are notable for both their technical mastery and a tongue-in-cheek portrayal of their subject matter.
