LECTURE

Lauren Kalman .\ Performance, Craft, and the Body

DATE & LOCATION 

March 26, 2025, 6pm
BARD GRADUATE CENTER

NEW YORK—The Bard Graduate Center will host a presentation by artist Lauren Kalman at 6 p.m. on March 26, 2025. She will discuss her practice-led research, which explores the intersection between craft, performance, and the female body. Artistic, practice-led research assumes that there are new understandings that can be gained through the making of art that cannot be discovered through other research approaches. Kalman will discuss how centering the performance of her body in her craft-based practice shifted and reframed an object-oriented or product-oriented output often assumed by the craft discipline. Kalman will also share her recent work, which focuses on the use of craft objects and video as performance documents.
