Hello everyone! Join us for a peek into the oh-so-evocative world of YBA Sarah Lucas.
I invite you to join the team and I, tonight at 7PM EST for Considering Art : Considering Nudity as we continue to expand our FREE public programming. More info below. About this event. Sarah Lucas is an English artist and part of the generation of Young British Artists (YBA) who emerged during the 1990s. Her works frequently employ visual puns and bawdy humor by incorporating photography, collage, and found objects. Tonight we explore some of Lucas’s most important projects, including early sculptures from the 1990s that substitute domestic furniture for human body parts. In this LIVE 90 minute tour, we will consider the photographic self-portraits that Lucas has produced throughout her career, biomorphic sculptures - including her stuffed-stocking Bunnies (1997–ongoing) and NUDS (2009–ongoing), the Penetralia series (2008–ongoing), and selections from her installations at the Freud Museum in London (2000) and the British Pavilion at the Venice Biennale (2015). These works, which complicate inscribed sexual and social normativity codes, aim to evoke, shock and problematize. Tickets are FREE and open to ALL. Please feel free to share. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/138529919719 Looking forward to interacting with you at 7PM EST.
