Landmarks and the Department of Art and Art History welcome artist Janine Antoni for a public lecture. Antoni's visit coincides with the screening of her work Touch (2002), presented this October as part of Landmarks Video.
Known for her unusual artistic processes, Antoni uses her body as both a tool and a source of meaning within the framework of her practice. Her early methods involved transforming materials such as chocolate and soap through everyday processes like bathing, eating and sleeping to create sculptural works and installations.
The lecture will be held in the Art Building Atrium; Room 1.102 and is free and open to all. Visitors may park in the San Jacinto Garage or in paid spots on the streets nearby.
