EJ Hauser | Public Lecture Series at WashU’s Sam Fox School
Join us Monday, March 17, at 5:30 p.m., for the Arthur L. and Sheila Prensky Island Press Visiting Artist Lecture with artist EJ Hauser.
Hauser (they/them) lives and works in Brooklyn and Upstate New York, and is represented by Derek Eller Gallery in New York City and Haverkampf & Leistenschneider in Berlin. Hauser’s paintings are both graphic and open to interpretation, teetering between iconography and something familiar but abstract. This imagery shifts between omnivorous references both ancient and current — the paintings are mysterious talismans, employing buzzing pallets and marks that dance. Stuttering lines form a visual code like musical notes, which coalesce with atmospheric layers to create ineffable messages.
This event is part of the Sam Fox School’s Public Lecture Series and is free and open to the public. The lecture will take place in Steinberg Hall.
Free parking is available in the East End Garage beginning at 5:00 p.m. Enter the garage from Forsyth Boulevard or Forest Park Parkway.
