In alignment with Lilienthal Gallery’s current exhibition, Her: Women Artists Modern and Contemporary, we invite you to join us for a discussion on the past and future of women artists.

Leading the conversation are Sai Clayton and Laura Hutson Hunter, organizers of the Frist Art Museum’s exhibition, In Her Place, which celebrates Nashville-based women artists.

 

Meet the Speakers:

 

Sai Clayton is the Co-Curator of In Her Place at the Frist Art Museum, Curatorial Director at COOP Gallery in Nashville, and the Programming Director at Arcade Arts. She is also a visual artist whose work combines autobiography with real and imagined cultural icons to consider transcultural paradoxes.

Laura Hutson Hunter is a writer, editor, and independent curator based in Nashville. She is the co-editor of the In Her Place catalogue for the Frist Art Museum. Hunter has been the arts editor of the Nashville Scene for more than a decade, and has also written for Art in America and Vice Magazine. She has curated a number of exhibitions, including Nerve: The Female Body in Women’s Art and Futurephilia: Sex and Science Fiction in Contemporary Art.
