The Art of Richard Tuttle: A Celebration
Richard Tuttle, artist
Madeleine Grynsztejn, Elise S. Haas Senior Curator of Painting and Sculpture, SFMOMA
Katy Siegel, assistant professor of art history, Hunter College

Phyllis Wattis Theater
7:00 p.m.

For more than 40 years, Richard Tuttle has playfully blurred the boundaries between painting, sculpture, and drawing. His art is characterized by a diverse and unorthodox use of materials that makes for richly complex forms. Tuttle's works, whether installations, book works, or objects, are unique and have been profoundly influential to a younger generation of artists. Join exhibition curator Grynsztejn, art historian Siegel, the artist, and additional guest speakers as we introduce and celebrate Tuttle's singular achievements in contemporary art.

$12 general; $8 SFMOMA members, students, and seniors. Tickets are available at the Museum (no surcharge) or online.
