About the event

Artful Evening: A Conversation with Leo Villareal

Learn more about the artist behind the Leo Villareal: Interstellar exhibition! During this virtual Artful Evening, Villareal will discuss the last twenty years of his career, delving deep into his practice of using code and light to create his work — from gallery exhibitions to complex architectural projects to monumental public artworks.

Leo Villareal is a Mexican American light artist based in New York City. His work is in the permanent collections of the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Buffalo AKG Museum in Buffalo, NY, among others. Villareal also creates monumental, site-specific works, including The Bay Lights (2013), a 1.8 mile long installation of 25,000 LED lights on San Francisco’s Bay Bridge, and Illuminated River (2019), which spans nine bridges along the Thames in London, uniting them into a single monumental work of public art.
