This event is sold out.
Join Gagosian and Judd Foundation for a conversation between architects David Adjaye and Frida Escobedo, moderated by architect and critic Julian Rose. The trio will closely examine some of Donald Judd’s rigorously developed architectural projects while considering the question “What does it mean for an artist to make architecture?” They will discuss the agency of art and architecture alike—confronting their potentials and their limits—and the significance of taking art outside the museum and into the city or landscape. Adjaye’s current projects include the design of the new Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, while Escobedo is the architect for the Oscar L. Tang and H.M. Agnes Hsu-Tang Wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
