Join Stanley Whitney and curator Cathleen Chaffee in conversation to celebrate the artist’s new monograph, Stanley Whitney: How High the Moon, published in conjunction with his traveling retrospective, currently on view at the Buffalo AKG Art Museum, New York, through May 26. The pair will discuss the breadth of Whitney’s practice since the early 1970s, his work in relation to his artistic community, and his influences—from the history of art and architecture to quilting, textiles, and jazz. The talk is presented by DelMonico Books as part of Printed Matter’s NY Art Book Fair 2024 and is free to attend.
