Join us for
a lecture
by Rachel Federman, curator of Helène Aylon: Undercurrent. The objects in this Art@Bainbridge exhibition form the backdrop for a
probing and wide-ranging discussion of Aylon’s artistic production,
which the late artist described as if it were a play in three acts:
Body, Earth, God. Federman will unpack these categories and
illuminate the undercurrent that runs beneath Aylon’s inspiring and
underrecognized fifty-year practice. Introduced by Juliana
Ochs Dweck, chief curator. Reception to follow.

Through painting, performance, film, and more, Helène
Aylon’s artistic practice emphasized discovery rather than
completion. The works in this exhibition, drawn from the
artist’s fifty-year career, demonstrate her belief that openness to
the contingencies of the body, the earth, and spirituality could
facilitate understanding, even healing. Guest curated by Rachel
Federman.
