Please join President Maurie McInnis ’96 PhD for Meeting the Moment: Yale in Conversation—a new regional event series in collaboration with the Yale Alumni Association bringing together members of the Yale community for timely conversations about the ideas, discoveries, and people advancing Yale's mission and impact.

In the second lecture of this two-part series, join Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Executive Director Courtney J. Martin as she discusses Rasheed Araeen’s concept of participatory transformation.

Central to the seminal artist’s mid-career and later work were his early sculptures, which he defined as structures. Alongside an otherwise minimalist practice, Araeen began to write about his objects, shifting his definition of them as sculpture into the more sociocultural designation of structure. Structures relied on viewer engagement and invited interaction with other objects, viewers, and each other, changing the economy of space within the exhibition. These structures showed the signature of Araeen’s interest in low technology, ephemerality, roughness, and an overall surface crudeness taking shape.

A conversation will follow between Martin and Kellie Jones, Hans Hofmann Professor of Modern Art in the Department of Art History & Archaeology and a Professor in the Department of African American & African Diaspora Studies at Columbia University.  

There will be a reception at The Yale Club of New York City following the talk. 

Registration required.

Dr. Anna Reisman will share the story of Yale School of Medicine's Program for Art in Public Spaces. The program, created in 2018, has addressed how shared academic spaces can be made more welcoming to all members of our communities. The group's initial charge was to take a critical look at the walls of the main building at the medical school and to reevaluate the historical portraits, some of which had been on the walls for more than a hundred years.
The program has since transformed the hallways through providing more context about the historical portraits, commissioning new works, hosting exhibits by members of the medical school community, and, perhaps most notably, adding a rotating series of photographic portraits of women faculty. Reisman will also describe research on how the historical portraits impacted medical students, both before and after these changes.
