Denver Rocks! Let's do cool things!
Laura Shill: Artist in Conversation
Artist Laura Shill’s exhibition Phantom Touch, currently on view at MCA Denver, includes cyanotypes from her Absent Lovers series in which the artist appropriates images from covers of Harlequin romance novels and then edits out key details from the original, revealing hidden dynamics behind depictions of women. Shill is joined in conversation by Curator Nora Burnett Abrams.
What is Feminism & Co.?
It’s a program series from the Museum of Contemporary Art that explores contemporary culture through issues relating to women and gender. With film screenings, creative performances, lectures, and panel discussions, these evenings address women’s (and men’s) complicated relationship to art, politics, and sexuality.
