Alicia Longwell in Conversation with Artist Joe Zucker
FRIDAY NIGHTS LIVE!
June 26, 2020, 5 pm - 6 pm
Alicia G. Longwell, Ph.D., The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Chief Curator at the Museum, will give a livestream illustrated talk with collection artist Joe Zucker about his new monograph, Joe Zucker (Thames & Hudson, 2020). Zucker’s art is rooted in a conceptual framework where tools, materials, processes, procedures, content, and subject matter are all interrelated. The career-spanning survey covers nearly a half century of the Bridgehampton-based artist’s entire body of work—from the 1960s grid paintings to his latest work, including the monumental 1000 Brushstrokes (2015–2016).
Zucker, employs materials such as cotton balls, sash cords, and pegboards, and acrylic and rhoplex in his work, exploring themes including the history of cotton, ancient civilizations. Over the past five decades, Zucker’s work has ranged from personal to complex, often relating to the processes and materials. The 256 page monograph, published by Thames & Hudson and covering the breadth and depth of his output, features an introduction by author John Elderfield, Chief Curator Emeritus of Painting and Sculpture at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Other contributing essayists include Terry R. Myers critic, curator, and professor at the Art Institute of Chicago; Alex Bacon, scholar, writer, and curator; and Phong Bui, artist, writer, curator, and publisher of The Brooklyn Rail.
