Curator’s Perspective: Glenn Phillips

Glenn Phillips, Principal Project Specialist and Consulting Curator in the Department of Architecture and Contemporary Art at the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles, will give a lecture titled "Curating the 1970s" for the Curator's Perspective, ICI's itinerant public discussion series. Focusing on recent exhibitions and works in progress, Glenn will discuss a range of approaches to curating exhibitions about the 1970s, including examples from the upcoming initiative Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945-1980, an unprecedented collaboration of more than fifty cultural institutions across Southern California, which are coming together to tell the story of the birth of the LA art scene. This event has been produced in collaboration with The Kitchen, New York.

About The Curator's Perspective

The Curator’s Perspective is a free, itinerant public talk series featuring established U.S. and international curators, who present on their work and research. It was developed to offer audiences ways to connect with timely information and a wide variety of international perspectives on contemporary art and curating today. The series sheds light on movements and models that are shaping the curatorial field today, addressing questions about art, culture, and the artists and exhibitions that curators look to.
