Nicole Eisenman to Inaugurate The Tang Museum's Winter/Miller Lecture Series

American artist Nicole Eisenman will give the inaugural Winter/Miller Lecture at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, February 7, at the Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, NY; the event is free and open to the public.

Nicole Eisenman is known for her critically acclaimed figurative paintings of imagined and allegorical subjects that explore the human condition and speak to queer culture. Her work has been exhibited around the world, including at the New Museum in New York, the ICA in Philadelphia, and twice at the Whitney Biennial, and notably, the Tang in 2009 as a part of the Opener Series, Opener 17: Nicole Eisenman-The Way We Weren't.

Eisenman is brought to the Tang on the invitation of Rachel Rosenfeld '18, a Skidmore student who holds the 2016-17 Eleanor Linder Winter '43 Internship, a one-year pre-professional program in museum work which includes the research, planning and coordination of the annual Winter/Miller Lecture.
