Talk: Tom McDonough on Typography in Art



Guggenheim Museum

Recent years have seen a proliferation of younger artists whose work employs typography, printed characters, or even the very institution of printing. Tom McDonough, Associate Professor and Chair of Art History at Binghamton University, focuses on artists and collectives—such as Dexter Sinister, Shannon Ebner, Janice Kerbel, and Adam Pendleton—whose work demonstrates how typography has become a central element of aesthetic practice.

The Hilla Rebay Lecture brings distinguished scholars to the Guggenheim Museum to examine significant issues in the theory, criticism, and history of art. This annual program is made possible through the generosity of the Hilla von Rebay Foundation.
