Hanes Visiting Artist Lecture Series: Paul Mpagi Sepuya
March 24, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Registration Link on our website (available until start of event)
Paul Mpagi Sepuya is a Los Angeles-based artist working in photography and an Associate Professor in Media Arts at UC San Diego. His work is in the collections of the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Getty and Guggenheim Museums, LACMA, MoMA, The Studio Museum in Harlem, and the Whitney Museum, among others. Recent exhibitions include solos at Document in Chicago and the Bemis in Omaha, a survey of work at CAM St. Louis, and a project for the 2019 Whitney Biennial.
An endowment established in 1983 through the generosity of Nancy and Robin Hanes supports the Art Department’s Visiting Artist Series. This important program brings both established and emerging artists to campus to discuss their work in public lectures and to offer individual critiques to our M.F.A. students. The Hanes Visiting Artist series greatly enriches both our academic programs and our outreach to the wider community. All lectures are free and open to the public.
