While participating in programs
within the contemporary art world at large, Studio Society Members build meaningful relationships with
fellow Members, as well as artists,
curators and other leaders in our community and beyond.
Exploring themes of agency, politics and perspective, and responding to content
within the fair itself, this year's Talks program features Claudia Rankine, 2016 MacArthur
Fellow and winner of the 2017 Bobbitt National Poetry Prize for her collection Citizen, as well as a panel on art and social commitment chaired by Shuddhabrata Sengupta of Raqs Media Collective and featuring artists Tania Bruguera, Anri Sala and Jeanne van Heeswijk; and a conversation on «complicating the Modern» from Ann Temkin, Marie - Josée and Henry Kravis Chief
Curator of Painting and Sculpture at MoMA.
