Conversations on Art: Robert Gober and Donna De Salvo on Heat Waves in a Swamp: The Paintings of Charles Burchfield

Listen to audio from this program.

Celebrated by critics and known to a broad public audience during his lifetime, Charles Burchfield is curiously under-appreciated today. Heat Waves in a Swamp: The Paintings of Charles Burchfield provides the most comprehensive examination to date of this modernist master. Join Robert Gober, acclaimed sculptor and curator of Heat Waves in a Swamp, and Donna De Salvo, Whitney chief curator, as they discuss Burchfield, the exhibition, his subjects, and his process.
