September 11
6 pm - Reception and book signing
7 pm - Lecture

Michael Auping, Chief Curator at the Modern, has consistently made time to talk with artists about the nature of their work throughout his thirty-year career. Observations, memories, and stories from years of studio visits and conversations have culminated in Auping’s most recent book, 30 Years: Interviews and Outtakes. For Tuesday Evenings Auping highlights some of these “interviews and outtakes” while giving a sense of the relationships and insights art has afforded him as he has worked with some of the world’s most creative and interesting individuals.

Books available beginning September 11 in The Modern Shop.
