Kimbell Hosts Visiting Artist

Adam Silverman, no rx a Los Angeles–based artist, will present a gallery talk in the Kimbell Art Museum’s “Artist’s Eye” series on Saturday, October 13, at 11 a.m. Jennifer Casler Price, curator for Asian and non-Western art at the Kimbell, will moderate this free program.

To commemorate the 40th anniversary of the opening of the Kimbell in its iconic Louis I. Kahn building, Silverman has created three site-specific vessels that will be installed in the Museum’s southern interior courtyard during the special exhibition The Kimbell at 40: An Evolving Masterpiece and will be featured in this gallery talk.

One vessel will sit on each of the low, travertine plinths on the sidewalls, with a third on the travertine cube at the west end of the fountain, facing Antoine Bourdelle’s sculpture of Penelope. The artist says that his ultimate hope is that they will look like Kahn chose them for the space himself.
