In conjunction with the opening of our highly anticipated Max Beckmann exhibition, the Neue Galerie New York invited 3 contemporary artists to discuss the ongoing relevance of Beckmann’s oeuvre on contemporary art production and why his paintings still fascinate us today.
Join us at the Neue Galerie New York on Saturday, October 7 at 6 p.m. for a discussion on Max Beckmann, featuring renowned contemporary artists in conversation. Moderator Tom Wolf will lead a discussion with participants Mary Frank, Alison Elizabeth Taylor and Mark Schlesinger about the ongoing relevance of Beckmann’s oeuvre on contemporary art production, exploring how his comments on contemporary art production continue to fascinate us today. Plus, Mary Frank will share her personal experience with Beckmann, as she studied with the artist in his final year of life in 1949 and Mark Schlesinger will recount his experience as a young artist and studio assistant to Lee Krasner.
