In Conversation with Artist Elliott Hundley
As part of the programming for Proscenium: Elliot Hundley and "By Achilles’ Tomb: Elliott Hundley" and "Antiquity @ SBMA," exhibiting artist Elliott Hundley will join James Glisson, SBMA Chief Curator and Curator of Contemporary Art, in conversation.
In "By Achilles’ Tomb", Hundley, whose work has long engaged with ancient Greek culture, has reimagined the Museum’s display of Greco-Roman antiquities, complementing and contrasting his own works with the Museum’s renowned collection. Glisson and Hundley will discuss the artist’s deep connections with ancient history and literature as well as his ability to transform humble and castoff materials into bewitching artworks of great delicacy and captivating density.
