Gallery Talk: LaToya M. Hobbs’s Preparatory Sketches

Join curatorial fellow Madeline Murphy Turner Wednesday, May 22 for a close look at detailed sketches that LaToya M. Hobbs made in preparation for her series "Carving Out Time," a life-size suite of woodcuts on view in the special exhibition "LaToya M. Hobbs: It’s Time." Learn how Hobbs maps out her artistic vision on a small scale and with pencil—a process that allows her to compose and recompose each scene before committing to engraving the final woodcut matrix.

Talks are limited to 18 people and are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration is not required. Harvard Art Museums offer free admission every day, Tuesday through Sunday.
