"I'm glad we've unlearned enough now to really appreciate the ambition of [Pacita's] universe."— Pio Abad

Last month, we hosted a panel on Pacita Abad’s life and legacy as part of our Open House. Featuring Ruba Katrib, Joan Kee, and Pio Abad, the panel delves into the rise of Pacita's visibility within the art world, the intimacy with which she depicted her subjects, and so much more. Watch the full video above, and plan your visit to see Pacita Abad, on view through September 2.

Selena's 1995 Houston Astrodome performance is the pinnacle of artistic expression, and we will not be taking comments.

...unless they're from artist Leslie Martinez and curator Elena Ketelsen González. The two sat down to discuss the iconic "Queen of Tejano Music," and the ethos of holding absolutely nothing back—on stage and in the studio.

“I wanted to pose questions around representations of intimacy, of disrupting, looking, as methods of resistance." — Charisse Pearlina Weston  

Charisse Pearlina Weston's delicate sculptures take up the subject of Occupied Look, a program started by the New York City Department of Housing and Preservation and Development (HPD) in the 1980s that affixed hundreds of window decals onto buildings across the city. The program, born as the Bronx was increasingly becoming politicized as a site of urban decay, essentially projected a vision of renewed interior space while boarding up vacant buildings.    

Visit Charisse in her studio and take a walk through Harlem to hear about the ways her research into the history of New York has shaped her sculpture practice. See Charisse's works when you visit And ever an edge: Studio Museum Artists in Residence 2022–23.
