    Curator Talk with Sylvia Wolf

    Join our curators as they share their perspectives and expand upon core ideas in our most recently opened exhibitions.
    Sylvia Wolf, John S. Behnke Director of the Henry, discusses the first survey of Chuck Close’s work in photography. Wolf has a longstanding connection to Chuck Close, dating back to when she was head of the department of photography at the Whitney Museum of American Art. She will provide an overview of the artist’s career-long engagement with photography, sharing aspects of his process and anecdotes that bring photography and Close’s engagement with the medium to life.
