Wolfgang Laib + Martin Brauen

Talk about Nothing

Wednesday November 3, 2010 @ 7:00 PM
Price: $20.00
Member Price: $18.00


The conceptual artist Wolfgang Laib, featured in Grain of Emptiness, sits down with RMA Chief Curator Martin Brauen to discuss the artist's use of natural materials such as white marble, milk, rice, pollen, and lacquer to create meditations on the transitoriness and interwovenness of all things, an idea parallel to the concept of pratityasamutpada, the doctrine of dependent arising in Tibetan Buddhism.
