2025-26 UCLA Art Council Distinguished Scholar Lectureship in Art History – Hilton Als, Part Two

Hilton Als delighted the audience in part one of the 2025-26 UCLA Art Council Distinguished Scholar Lectureship in Art History on Wednesday, March 5th.  If you missed this talk on Diane Arbus, you can watch it on YouTube here.

Als will be returning to the Billy Wilder Theater on Wednesday, April 15th at 7:30 PM for a conversation with Zoë Ryan, Director of the Hammer Museum. The conversation will be on curating, and specifically giving attention to the many exhibitions he has curated both at the Hammer (Joan Didion) and elsewhere, specifically to the kind of artists and artworks he has highlighted, and to the larger issue of his curating exhibitions in relation to the issue of writing, and to literature and specific writers (from James Baldwin to Jean Rhys).

Please join us for Part Two of this lecture series.  All are welcome!
