Explore Jennifer Packer: The Eye Is Not Satisfied With Seeing with Jane Panetta, Curator and Director of the Collection, and Curatorial Assistant Ambika Trasi. Featuring over thirty works from the past decade, The Eye Is Not Satisfied With Seeing is the largest survey of Packer’s practice to date. Her intimate renderings of friends, family, and flowers evoke the art historical genres of portraiture and still life, while also highlighting the politics of representation. For this event, Panetta and Trasi will provide an overview of the exhibition and then take questions from the audience.
