Nasher Prize Dialogue: Sculpture + History

In conjunction with the Nasher Sculpture Center’s Nasher Prize, this program looked at the ways in which artists work with documents, found and archived materials, and research to create sculptural work that considers particularly potent historic moments and issues, as well as the current political climate. Panelists included Chilean-born, New York-based artist, architect and filmmaker Alfredo Jaar; artist and recent recipient of the Calder Prize Jill Magid (New York); artist and educator Paul Ramirez Jonas (New York), and Dallas-based artist lauren woods. The conversation was moderated by Ben Davis, national art critic for artnet News.
