Ann Lauterbach: The Given and the Chosen
Thursday, February 11, 7pm
SVA Theatre, 333 West 23 Street
Free and open to the public

Ann Lauterbach is a poet and critic, who serves as co-chair of writing at the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College and a visiting critic at the Yale University School of Art. Her talk will focus on how the work of art mediates the given and the chosen, taking its place between fixities of received orders and possible forms that simultaneously confirm and escape those fixities. Lauterbach’s most recent book, Or to Begin Again (Penguin, 2009), was nominated for the National Book Award. Presented by the MFA Art Criticism and Writing Department.
