Natasha Bowdoin, artist, Houston
Moderated by George T. M. Shackelford, deputy director
What does the art of the past mean to the artist of the present? In this ongoing program, moderated by Kimbell staff, artists and architects discuss works in the museum’s collection, share the special insights of the practicing professional, and relate older art to contemporary artistic concerns, including their own.
The program is free and requires no reservations.
About the Artist
Natasha Bowdoin (b. 1981) is an artist who wants to expand the borders of painting into three dimensions, often making large-scale colorful painted-paper collages that move out from the gallery wall and occupy floor space. Her works have been exhibited internationally, including in Fort Worth, where In the Night Garden was presented Amon Carter Museum of American Art in 2021. Trained at Brandeis University and the Tyler School of Art, she lives and works in Houston, and is an Associate Professor in Painting and Drawing at Rice University.
