Both Sides of The Line: A Conversation With Curator Dana Miller and Poet John Yau

Join curator Dana Miller and poet and art critic John Yau for a special Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series event exploring the histories of Carmen Herrera and Leon Polk Smith, two groundbreaking artists of American abstraction.

🗓️ Friday, Sept. 19th
⏰ 7-8:15 pm
📍 UMMA
🎟️ Free & open to the public

Miller and Yau will discuss the way each artist’s very different path converged to form a sustaining friendship and dive into Herrera and Smith’s work on view in the UMMA exhibition Both Sides of the Line. Despite forging a creative dialogue that spanned decades, their work has never been presented side-by-side at this scale, until now.
