The Menil recently acquired a Glenn Ligon artwork created with neon – an artist material that is fairly rare in our collection. Join Kari Dodson as she discusses what the conservation team recently learned from the artist about this piece, Untitled (Orpheus and Eurydice), and how the artist’s choices will affect the work of exhibition designers, art handlers, and conservators.
Held online every other Friday for a small group, Member Noontime Talks make exhibitions more intimate and reveal the collection as never before. To sign up, please RSVP to membership@menil.org. If you are not currently a Menil Member, you can learn more and join here.
Members Noontime Talks are generously supported by Frost Bank.
