The twelfth episode of "The Picture" podcast features a conversation recorded live at Acquavella Galleries in New York on the occasion of the new exhibition "less: minimalism in the 1960s."
The exhibition’s curator, gallery director Michael Findlay, spoke with artist Katie Bell and Robert Slifkin, a Professor of Fine Arts at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University. Michael, Katie and Robert discussed the origins of minimalism and how, though the term is now widely understood as an artistic and aesthetic style, it was not always so ubiquitous.
The exhibition features work from 19 artists, including Carl Andre, Larry Bell, Judy Chicago, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, Sol LeWitt and Eva Hesse, each of whom sought an enigmatic simplicity and clarity in their work, which collectively came to define minimalism in the 1960s.
"less: minimalism in the 1960s" is on view February 1 to March 10, 2023, at Acquavella Galleries in New York.
