Details

How did the Pittsburgh-born son of working-class immigrants transform the art world? Why does Andy Warhol still matter? We’ll see four decades of Warhol’s art, hear from his admirers and detractors — and discover how he caused commotion during his visits to Tucson.

Monthly lectures examine art and artists that have influenced the world, from the great classics of Europe to the art of the Southwest, to the most exciting trends in modern and contemporary art. The Museum will also be open on those days, so bring the family, enjoy the Art Talk, and then wander the galleries!

Art Talks are $5 for non-members; free for TMA members and students with ID.

The elevator to the Alice Chaiten Baker Center for Art Education is temporarily out of order. The building remains accessible through the entrance located on the south side of the building along Alameda, the door is labeled “166.” Please call 520-616-2692 for assistance.
