Floor One, Kenneth C. Griffin Hall
For the 2015 Walter Annenberg Lecture, artist Frank Stella, who is currently the subject of a career-spanning retrospective at the Whitney, will speak about his work and the history of American art in conversation with Adam D. Weinberg, the Museum’s Alice Pratt Brown Director. The conversation will take place in the Whitney Museum of American Art’s first-floor Kenneth C. Griffin Hall.
In honor of the late Walter H. Annenberg, philanthropist, patron of the arts, and former ambassador, the Whitney Museum of American Art established the Walter Annenberg Annual Lecture to advance this country’s understanding of its art and culture. Support for this lecture and for public programs at the Whitney Museum is provided, in part, by Jack and Susan Rudin in honor of Beth Rudin DeWoody, public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, the Barker Welfare Foundation, and by members of the Whitney's Education Committee.
Tickets are required ($15; $10 for members, seniors, and students). Please note: this event has reached ticketing capacity.
