This holiday week the museum is open Tuesday–Thursday and Saturday & Sunday. If you aren't quite ready to visit in person check out the exhibition online. Check out the Citizenship Programs, meet the artists, learn from Senior Curator Miranda Lash about specific works in the exhibition.
One of the most important and influential artists of her generation, Goldin has revolutionized the art of photography through her frank and deeply personal portraiture. Join Goldin as she sits down with Tania Bruguera, for a free, virtual conversation about the activist strategies that they've employed inside and outside of their studios.
Nan Goldin was born in Washington D.C. in 1953. She lives and works in New York City. Over the last 45 years, Goldin has created some of the most indelible images of the 20th and 21st centuries. Since the late 1970s her work has explored notions of gender and definitions of normality. By documenting her life and the lives of the friends who surround her, Goldin gives a voice and visibility to her communities. In 2017 Goldin formed the activist group P.A.I.N. (Prescription Addiction Intervention Now) which stages protests aimed at US pharmaceutical drug companies.
Every week we add new stories, interviews, and general rad things to the blog. From conversations with local people and organizations, to holiday gift guides and teen news, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy!
