Documenting Culture

Elizabeth Peyton, David Hockney, Powis Terrace Bedroom, 1998
Elizabeth Peyton, David Hockney, Powis Terrace Bedroom, 1998

Elizabeth Peyton aims to capture people at “that particular moment when they’re about to become what they’ll become” Is she giving us a glimpse of a world rarely seen by outsiders? Writer and longtime music critic Jim Walsh, photographer Xavier Tavera, artist Melba Price, and documentary filmmaker/journalist Chuck Olsen talk about their work, the people and cultures they cover, and why the public is so interested in these subjects. Look for the online discussion which will take place throughout the exhibition at mnartists.org/peyton.
