Mickalene Thomas in Conversation with Dr. Mia Bagneris 1/18 at Woldenberg Art Center

On the occasion of Mickalene Thomas: Waiting on a Prime-Time Star, Thomas will be in conversation with Dr. Mia Bagneris, Assistant Professor of Art History, Tulane University, on January 18.

Waiting on a Prime-Time Star will highlight Thomas' strategy of working across different media-whether collage, painting, print, film, or installation-as part of her creative process. Blurring the boundaries between representation and abstraction, she, in turn, confronts the objectification of women while simultaneously offering a vocabulary for re-defining notions of femininity.

This event is supported in part by the Newcomb Art Department and the Sandra Garrard Memorial Fund for Recent Trends in Contemporary Art. For more information and to purchase tickets, click here.
