DESCRIPTION

In this episode, Aphrodite Gonou, Contemporary Art Program Advisor at the Museum of Cycladic Art, discusses with Gregor Muir, Director of Collection, International Art at Tate, the past exhibition of Louise Bourgeois titled “Personages” which was presented in 2010 at the Museum of Cycladic Art in Athens, Greece. Muir shares insights into Bourgeois’ life and practice, discusses her impact on contemporary art and future artist generations and his memories of the audience’s enthusiastic reception of the show. The exhibition “Nuds” by British artist Sarah Lucas, which was presented simultaneously at the Museum, widens the discussion about the role of women artists in art and the difficulties they face, as well as current efforts for inclusivity addressed by museums today.
