Panel Discussion
Thursday, May 28, 2015
7:00–9:00 p.m.
Museum Lecture Hall, Getty Center
This panel explores the work and legacy of Swiss curator Harald Szeemann (1933–2005), whose provocative and groundbreaking exhibitions have exerted a lasting influence on the field of contemporary art and exhibition-making.
Centering much of his practice around close collaborative relationships with artists and a sweeping global vision of culture, Szeemann developed more than 200 exhibitions over a career that spanned nearly 50 years. Many projects, such as When Attitudes Become Form in 1969 and documenta 5 in 1972, were controversial and harshly criticized, but over time they have become seen as landmark exhibitions of their era.
