Join MCNY live from home in our new series, “Curators from the Couch.” Our curators will speak with artists, influencers, and more...all from the comfort of their own couches.
Timed to kick off Census Digital Weekend, the pilot episode will feature a conversation on works in the Museum’s current exhibition, Who We Are: Visualizing NYC by the Numbers, which also connects to the 2020 Census.
Robert A. and Elizabeth Rohn Jeffe Chief Curator and Deputy Director Sarah Henry will be joined by information designer Giorgia Lupi, a partner at Pentagram, and artist and computer scientist Brian Foo.
The conversation will be streamed live on Facebook.
