Open to Contemporaries and Contemporaries Patron members

Contemporaries members are invited to an evening with artist Jasmin Sian, in conversation with Biennial Curatorial Assistant Beatriz Cifuentes and Rubio Butterfield Family Fellow Carina Martinez. Sian will discuss her use of found materials, her labor-intensive process, and the tender regard she holds for the natural world, whose flora and fauna feature prominently in the works currently on view in the 2026 Biennial. A selection of collection works by other artists chosen by Sian will be on view for the occasion.

This program will take place in the Museum’s Sondra Gilman Study Center
