To coincide with the opening of the highly anticipated exhibition Firelei Báez, join artist Firelei Báez in conversation with curator Eva Respini, Deputy Director & Director of Curatorial Programs. They will discuss Báez’s artistic practice and how storytelling and mythmaking inform her work.
Over the past twenty years, Báez has been making art that explores the multilayered legacy of colonial histories, as well as the African diaspora in the Caribbean and beyond. Firelei Báez is the artist’s first mid-career survey and the first opportunity for Canadian audiences to delve into Báez’s complex and profoundly moving body of work.
This talk is free for Experience Members and above and ticketed at the reduced price of $10 for Ideas Members. The ticket price for Access Pass Holders and non-members is $20.
